Graham is an interesting independent brand. In the last years, it managed to impose its own recognisable style of left-sided crown chronographs and to come with some impressive timepieces. Today I present you the Graham Chronofighter Vintage Ltd Ref. 2CVAV.B28A – a trick or treat piece for the end of the year.
The distinctive start and stop lever on the left of the case is the renowned GRAHAM Chronofighter signature which enables to activate the chronograph functions. The system recalls early stopwatches used by World War 2 flying officers which were just large pocket watches strapped over bomber jackets. Instinctive and precise, it is a fail-safe system which does not distract the wearer because the lever on the left of the case is effortlessly reached with the right hand. The thumb, the fastest of all fingers, starts and stops the chronograph. The result is precise timing.
