For all you Rugby (and BIG watch) fans out there

It seems only fair that as I am writing about Graham, I should make mention of some of their more "muscular" models as well!

Many of you may not be aware that Graham LONDON has a very tightly-knit connection to the world of rugby, and in fact has been the Official Timekeeper of the RBS 6 Nations tournament for the last two years, and 2011 will mark their third year keeping the time for this event.

 These are clearly watches made not just for looks - but for performance and action!

 And in the words of Graham -

The Chronofighter Oversize Referee is all about rugby. 

The Chronofighter Oversize Referee was conceived based on the needs of the referees.

They required a light watch, as they run a lot.
We therefore developed a titanium light-weight case, a case with a perfect fit on the wrist.

They asked for readability.
We opted for a white dial to emphasise the 30 double-graduated minutes counter at 6 o’clock.

Thanks to its internal 40 minutes graduation, it measures the halves of each match accurately.

They worried about injuries in case of contact.

We covered the red lever and black bezel with a soft-touch rubber.

They required that it would operate smoothly.

We used the left drive lever mechanism.

Referees did not ask for the red strap.

But we decided that it would add a thrilling dimension to the piece and
complement the colours of referees’ jerseys.
