With the announcement of the Geckota C-1 Racing Chronograph, it was time to give them a try. They sent me a prototype model V03 for this review. Overall quality is what I would expect from a finished product. The only planned changes are black fill on the crown signature and stronger lume. The C-1 takes its cues from vintage racing chronographs, but goes its own way, most notably in case design, which is cushion shaped with hard corners, bowed edges, and flat sides. It has slim, straight, drilled lugs and measures 42mm wide, 45mm long and 12mm thick. Square watches tend to appear at least one size larger than round cases of the same width, but the Geckota avoids this fate by using a combination of finishes: radial brushing on top, vertical brushing on the sides, and polishing on the prominent bezel and around the beveled upper edge. The push buttons and crown are also polished.

This variation breaks up the otherwise blocky shape, lending it a pleasingly tailored effect. Case is fitted with a signed, dual gasket, screw down crown and an anti-reflective sapphire crystal. Water resistance is a healthy 100m. On the flip side, you will find a threaded case back engraved with the Geckota name and your watch's serial number.

Rown and an anti-reflective sapphire crystal. Squares of SuperLuminova are printed behind the polished and applied faceted markers, and the polished hands are also filled with lume glow see photos and video. The only text on the dial is the brand name, printed in a distinctive script.

The date window is nicely incorporated into the 6 o'clock position, displacing that marker, and its polished frame works well with the other accents. Given the selection of straps for sale at WatchGecko, I had high expectations for the C-1's strap, and I was not disappointed.

The 22mm Vintage Racing strap is a classic, perforated rally style, cut from thick waxed leather that presents a pull-up effect when bent, creating lovely variations in its red-brown color. It has a wide, floating keeper and ivory stitching at the corners.

The buckle is polished, but unsigned but the strap is signed. Lug to lug: 45 mm. Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal glass (AR coated).

Water resistant to 100 m (10 ATM). Swiss Super-LumiNova luminescent paint on dial and hands. Case: solid 316L stainless steel with sunray brushed finish. Screw-down, signed crown with double O-ring seal.
