A no go for me... The word automatic above 6 o clock.

Another thing is that they could, for such a watch, have opted for a manual winding movement.
From a cool watch, they would have made a GREAT watch.
But let's forget the automatic movement....
THE detail which seriously kills me is the mention " automatic " on the dial. It was absolutely not necessary, and I would have much preferred a " CP 2 " or " Cronometro " mention if something was to be mentioned.
Good point, the solid case back. And the case, which is interesting and pleasant. As well as the fact that it is ALSO a chronometer.
A last word on the embargo: It was really a fool's game. Everybody had the pictures of this watch some weeks and months ago. The effect of surprise is totally spoiled with that Chronograph.
My quick thoughts, which need to be confirmed, as always, when I see it in the real.
Best, and thanks for this nice report, Magnus.
