Citizen Eco-Drive Weekender Brycen Chronograph

Chronographs are the most wanted complication and usually the most expensive, because a mechanical one is genuinely hard to make. This takes the sensible route: Eco-Drive quartz, so the sub-dials work precisely, the battery never needs changing, and it costs two hundred dollars instead of two thousand. The Brycen is sized at 44mm, which is large and will overwhelm a slim wrist — the single most common complaint. Buy it for someone who wants the look of a pilot's watch without the servicing bills that come with a mechanical one.
