Archimede Watches Pilot Chronograph owners widely praise its value as an ETA 7750 Flieger chronograph, with a 42mm case size that some find large due to its minimal bezel, though its 13mm thickness is not considered excessive. Reviewers and owners alike highlight the brand's excellent value and case finishing, with one owner finding it a favorite second watch and good value on the pre-owned market. Some owners wish for heat-blued hands or a date at 3:00. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Archimede Watches Pilot Chronograph highly for its value as a Valjoux 7750 chronograph.
