Shaun:
I am happy to take the blame for these three.
The Auto-Graph represents to perfect connection between our chronographs and motorsports. Indeed, this one is purpose-built for rally timing, but is also elegant enough to wear with a suit.
In terms of the other two Abercrombies that you show, yes, they are favorites. The earlier one is built like a brick . . . a bullet-proof case with nice lines. The later one is on the dressy side, and can slip quietly under a cuff.
I hope that you will enjoy these three, as much as I have enjoyed mine.

: Here is the latest new arrival, definitely fits into the Jeff made
: me do it category.
: I always thought it was an awkward looking watch, but I became
: intrigued the more I read about it on various posts on OtD by
: Jeff and others. So when this one came up for auction a few
: weeks ago I went for it.
: The gilt hands and markers are really cool; I tried to capture it
: in this (poor & unflattering) photograph. Not sure about the
: hand on the elapsed hours sundial, maybe that has been replaced?

: I like how it fits into the line with it's other Heuer /
