Kronotype MDQS-2 Chronograph

Kronotype, an independent watch brand, features some extreme looking chronographs. Most interesting to me is the MDQS-2 (V1) with long banked sides that sink into the deeply recessed dial, reminding me of the deadly arena of "Rollerball," the 1975 film that envisions a future where a violent futuristic roller-derby sport replaces war. Gotta love James Caan in the seventies. The hour indexes of white gold balls only add to that steely vision.

Featuring a Titanium case, automatic winding and three counters, the chronograph retails for $8775 and is limited to an edition of 750 pieces. Go here for more images.
