Cronusart is a company located in Shenzhen of China, they produce both jewelries and watches, and I did not find the jewelry products they have made. The watches from Cronusart have one common feature, which is most are tonneau-shaped, absolutely they did not abandon the spirit of Chinese watches, which is homage. I have checked their official website, a lot of watches are homages of Richard Mille and Frank Muller. Some ladies models indeed attract my eyes by use of creative designs on the dial, I do not know if these creative dial designs are also copied from some Swiss models that I have never seen, anyway, I have an advice for the development of this brand, which is they can combine gems and continue to create novel designs on the dial, providing outstanding watches for ladies.
This Cronusart watch I am going to review today is made with forged carbon material, the watch may look familiar to you because it has a similar appearance to Daytona, but Rolex did not make such a carbon Daytona before, but I know which watch it copies from. This Cronusart watch exactly copies the designs of the carbon DiW Daytona, it is a great homage of the DiW Daytona. You can do a search about “DiW” on google, it is a company that makes customized Swiss watches.
I chose the one with black and orange color, which looks more attractive to me just because of the orange color used on the watch. The case has a diameter of 40mm and is measured to be 12.6mm, the entire case is made with forged carbon, including the bezel, case back and dial, the entire watch has a very light weight.
The use of orange color highlights the watch and enhances its stunning appearance. I did not expect a watch could also use carbon material on the dial, but this watch indeed has a forged carbon dial. Besides the brand logo at 12 o’clock, the orange small dials are not only in line with the orange color on the nylon band, but also enhance the readability of the black dial, they also tell you the operation mode of the watch.
This is a watch with working chronograph, seeing from its dial, the small second hand is running on the subdial at 6 o’clock, the slim and long hand on the center is not second hand, but works for seconds chronograph. The other two small dials at 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock have their own functions, one for minute chronograph, the other is for hour chronograph. By the way, the brand claims that this watch uses a 4130 movement made by Dandong movement factory, I only heard this movement in replica watch industry, perhaps this company sold fake watches in the past.
The band uses orange nylon on the outside, the inside that contacts your skin uses black leather, this design on the band not only maintains a cool appearance, but also guarantees a very soft and comfortable wearing experience. By the way, it is very easy to remove the band from the watch and replace a new band on.
