The 3rd Gen chrono is a full 1 mm plus thicker than the 2nd Gen chrono........

13.7mm vs 12.4mm. I owned the 2nd gen chrono and have tried a silver dial 3 Gen Chronograph on, the difference in thickness between the two is noticable. The in-house movement made the 3rd gen chunkier. Now I do like the 3rd generation three hander better than the previous model. The size and thickness (11mm) are about perfect for a sports watch.

I very much prefer the Gen 3 chrono over the Gen 2. The 2 is bit chunky and looks heavy compared to the 3 If you’re a fan of big date than the 3 won’t help you but personally I’m not a fan of big dates. I have the Gen 3 chrono with blue dial. Absolutely p...
That blue dial gen2 is really great.

My only issue with it is the poor water resistance, which is contrary to the concept of a sport chrono with screw down pushers. Case back should have been screw down.
I have a gen 2 chronograph

I prefer the gen 3 three hander and the gen three dual time zone to the gen 2, but in the chrono, I prefer the gen 2 layout. I think they should have updated to the new bezel , dial but left the old layout. Also the gen 3 chrono is just a little too thick...
