I'm looking at buying a chronograph, the one I was borrowing is now longer available. It was a Chrony, I don't remember the model.

I just wonder if the cheap ($100) chrono's are worth it or should I go for something like an oehler with the proof screen.

I am going to be a new father in february and think that my budget is going to take a hit. I need to get the "best bang for my buck".

thanks
