I Love it ❤️

·

I love the El Primero movement. Don't mind adding one to my collection.

·

Good and thin chronograph movement, you can’t go wrong with Zenith 💪

·

Richer history than most

·

Amazing watches that can be had at a discount

·

Incredible brand and they know how to make new thing and keep their heritage at the same time

·

My first chronograph, in what seems like ages ago! 🤩

·

Zenith is an underappreciated brand that doesn't get the love it would deserve. Only issue I have are often date placement at 4.30 and sometimes subpar bracelets and clasps. From chrono movement point of view second to none in their price segment and a bit higher

·

As an outsider not having owned/worn a Zenith, I see the El Primero as an iconic movement. Some good looking watches there, perhaps I’ll get around to trying them in a few years.

·

Love mine. Works very well on the bracelet or straps, very well finished, pretty accurate.

It has a cool history and you don’t see them often (unlike, say, a Speedy or Daytona).

I never really dove deep into Zenith watches but recently they keep popping up in the newsfeeds I follow. There is something about them that is really cool. As my wife would say they have a "street" feel without feeling tacky but a sophistication to them that screams high finish and technical excellence. I was thinking of getting one for my sister-in-law as a congratulations for her opening her new cocktail bar. She is a huge street fashion person and I thought a Zenith would be perfect for a commemoration gift.

I like Zenith watches. But the defy line leaves me cold. The one you have on this picture is👌

·

I love the El Primero, I would even consider it as my grail watch.

·

First time seeing this variation, cool watch

·

I Appreciate their history of being the first automatic chronograph but not a fan of their design style. I prefer their defy models

·

Zenith’s reputation is based around the chronograph. El primero is a horological statement. The chronomaster sport is a very good example of their abilities. Don’t think you could go wrong with one of their pieces.

Love my El Primero

Zenith is underrated. For me its the kind of brand that only us watch nerds understand and respect. 🙂

·

One day I will own one 🙏. The only chronograph I really want at the moment

First time seeing this variation, cool watch

It’s the Classic Cars edition… I do like the cotē de Geneve dial

·

Beautiful piece! Love the Geneve stripes dial 👌🏻

Zenith is a great brand, with heritage and true watchmaking, especially for chronographs. The El Primero is a great calibre, although the cal. 400 has a horizontal clutch, but 10th of a second accuracy. 👏🏻

Considering one myself 🧐
