Charlie Paris GR Chronographe - References, Prices and Owners' Reviews

A neo-vintage look for this chronograph for less than €400! A very nice shop in the heart of Paris for an impulse purchase that I don't regret. A watch with a mecaquartz movement, combining mechanics and quartz, which is expanding my collection! We are certainly not in the dimension of Rolex or Omega but rather in the desire to treat yourself at a good price for a young French brand that is constantly reinventing itself. With the Awake Concept, this is my 2nd French watch, a sign that young people are mobilizing to offer other paths in watchmaking with a more humble and above all more economical approach. This is also my 1st chronograph... A way to test this type of watch at a lower price and I must admit that the diversity of information specified on the dial brings this Charlie to life. Its price at €375 exactly makes me say that Japanese watches like Seiko or Orient - like my Prospex Bleue - no longer have the exclusivity of nice, different and accessible watches from a price point of view. Bravo Charlie from this point of view! Finally, I chose the sand-colored dial with the fabric strap of the same color for the discretion of the whole... and maybe I should have also taken the steel strap for its touch of originality?
