Damn! I don't see why not they did some pretty major changes 3 less bearings .7 oz lighter and a few other things

No price on that chronarch? What do they usually run?

D series were 299
Now the E series are down to 199

In other words, out of my range? I just picked up my first curado and that thing is ridiculous. I can only imagine how bad arse the chronarch must be. Wonder why such a price drop...
