The Straton Straton Syncro - Green, Purple and Red (ref. straton-syncro-new-colors) is a meca-quartz chronograph watch, with a 44mm carbon case, 14.9mm thick, powered by the Seiko VK64 movement. Water resistance is rated to 200m, under a sapphire crystal. Manufacturer MSRP is $599.
Owners praise the Straton Syncro's automobile-inspired design and practical features like a clear date window and 200m water resistance. The domed sapphire crystal is a pleasing aesthetic element, and the 44mm case is comfortable and balanced despite its 14.9mm thickness. However, some find the fully lumed dial's milky appearance and cool tones detract from legibility, alongside harsh case angles and busy bezel markings. The standard Milanese bracelet's polished finish contrasts with the brushed case and features an outdated clasp. One owner feels the watch is overpriced at nearly $500 for its Seiko VK64 movement. Overall, owners appreciate the Straton Syncro's unique design and robust build, though some question its value proposition and find certain design elements compromise legibility.
