: Well, I guess we can say that it has been a long slide down for
: the Orvis brand, in the world of chronographs, going from the
: "Solunagraph" (shown in the top photo) to the
: "Racing Chronograph" (shown below).
: The Racing Chronograph is described as follows: A chronograph
: design with a fabled history in European racing. Unique square
: stainless-steel case with stopwatch function that records
: seconds, minutes, and hours up to 24 hours for use in the
: 24-hour race at Le Mans. Quartz movement with an easy-to-see red
: stopwatch hand. Genuine crocodile band. Calendar function. 40mm
: case diameter. Three-year battery life. Imported. So it
: records hours up to 24, for use at Le Mans. Amazing!!
: We can only imagine what the Abercrombie counterpart might look
: like.
