Is the Stührling 4050 a mechanical or quartz watch?

It uses a Seiko/Hattori VK63 meca-quartz hybrid: quartz timekeeping with a mechanical-feeling chronograph and instant reset.

Yes. It is rated to 100 meters (10 ATM), which covers swimming, snorkeling and everyday wear.

What does the chronograph measure?

Central stopwatch seconds, a 60-minute counter and a 24-hour indicator, plus a tachymeter bezel for average speed over a known distance.

The case is about 42–43 mm across, so it wears large on slim wrists.

The watch and its packaging; owners describe the packaging as elegant and gift-ready.

How does it compare with a full mechanical chronograph?

It is cheaper to own and more accurate day to day, but it lacks the prestige and sweeping mechanical feel of an automatic movement.
