It's been around for a little while now and it's without a doubt my favourite on the B01 Chronomats. The brushed finished and the much more subtle use of red (compared to many of latest offerings) makes that one a winner IMO.

I feel similarly to Driver. It's the one variant of the current Chronomat that I actually like. I still don't like it as well as more classic Chronomat models, but overall the look is pretty nice.

If you find opinions slow in coming, though, it may be because this model has been talked about at length already. If you do some digging, you will find lots of existing commentary.

I've thought about buying it on many many occasions.

+3. It seems to be quite well received by most people here.

The Chronomat 44 looks best all brushed. I'd still want to get the bracelet to go with it though.
