In addition to tuning BMWs (and lately, beating them with an ugly stick in the process), AC Schnitzer offers a series of wristwatches. Who knew? This week, the company unveiled its Quartz Chronograph 2. Handsome and traditional in appearance (unlike some of its newer vehicle body kits), the new chrono features a brushed stainless case that's water resistant to 100 meters. A tachometer rings its pale yellow face, which also includes separate hour, minute, and second counters. A black leather strap with white contrast stitching affixes the timepiece to your wrist, and checking the time at night is no problem, either. The entire face is made of phosphorescent Luminova. Schnitzer doesn't say how much the new chrono costs, but we're fairly certain it's a good deal more than your garden-variety Timex.[Source: AC Schnitzer]

Funny thing, so many people post on autoblog hating all the mustangs.
Where are all the watch haters?
Like i could give a crap about watches from auto manufactures. I don't even know anyone that wears a watch anymore, everyone uses their cell phone to tell time.
What next, earrings?
I'll take a mustang post over a watch post any day of the week.

Personally, I like watches. Though for me it's not necessarily about the function and more to do with appreciating the form and internal mechanical bits. If this thing is essentially just a cheap ass quartz inside then it holds no interest. However if it's a mechanical, then let's get further in depth.
