Who should buy which.
The PRC 200 Chronograph Blue: A buyer who wants a Swiss chronograph that can be worn in the water and does not need winding or charging. Choose the slimmer PR 100 Chronograph if you want a smaller case, or a solar chronograph if you never want to change a battery.
The Promaster Skyhawk A-T Blue Dial (JY8078-52L): A pilot-watch fan who wants a world-time, alarm and chronograph tool that never needs a battery. Choose a plain three-hand watch if you want something slim and quiet. Choose the Skyhawk JY8146 if you prefer the darker dial.
Before you order.
At 43 mm wide, 42 mm long and 12.02 mm thick it is a substantial watch, and it runs on a battery. The case is not a diver and does not pretend to be one, so check the bezel and size against a watch you already wear.
It is large and heavy for what it is. Citizen lists a 45 mm case and Watches of America lists 14 mm thickness, so it will not slip under a fitted cuff. The ana-digi dial is also busy, and learning the crown and pushers takes a read of the manual.
