I've been looking into adding a "sporty" watch to my small collection. I'd love either of the 2 below and they indicate kind of the style I am looking for.

Jean Richard TV screen Chrono http://www.lussori.com/jeanrichard-tv-s ... -6498.html

Chopard Mille Miglia Gran Turismo XL Power Reserve http://www.lussori.com/chopard-mille-mi ... -7124.html

What do you guys think of them, and can you recommend other watches that are similar?

Thanks in advance.

Not really my thing, so I can't really recommend similar, but of the two I would take Chopard. Jean Richard is OK, but not in the Chopard league.

I had a JeanRichard TV Screen Chrono, it was OK, but nothing special. I would say you might as well get a GP if you're going to go that route. The Chopard Mille Miglia I don't like that much. I prefer their other dress watches a bit more. I don't think the DJR is a sporty watch...

Thinking of those styles, have you considered the Glashutte Original Sport Evo series, and maybe the Ulysse Nardin Marine Chonometre or Chronograph?

I second the Glashutte Original Evo Chrono... gorgeous watch with superb versatility.
