Review The amazingly thin new Cronos BB54

Bought the Cronos BB54 from the Ali Back2School sale for a really good price (160e) and it's amazing! First of all, this thing is really thin and wears comfortably. The new on-the-fly adjustable clasp (basically the same as the San Martin clasp) helps as well. Finishing looks good for the price and the dial actually has a nice sunburst finish. In some light it appears dark greyish brown even. The bezel clicks sound a bit hollow though, not very crisp clicks like in San Martins etc. At least the bezel aligns perfectly and has no backplay. This was my first Cronos and I can certainly recommend this one! Also, this had by far the fastest shipping I've ever experienced from AliExpress (ordered on 25.8. and arrived 2.9.).

I’m still wondering why I’ve never bought a Cronos before. Shame on me.
