Zenith El Primero Sub-Sea. What's your favorite diver chronograph?

Zenith El Primero Sub-Sea is a rare and iconic timepiece produced from 1971 to 1975, featuring the legendary El Primero 3019 PHC movement. The exact production numbers are still unknown, with some sources suggesting around 2,500 pieces were produced, while others claim numbers as low as 1,000. It was created to compete with other high-class chronographs of its time, such as the Breitling Navitimer and Omega Speedmaster. The watch had a large size for its era, measuring 44mm in diameter and 13.9mm in thickness. Its notable features included interchangeable bezels for pilot or diver use.

That watch is utter awesomeness 👌, for a similar look (and probably a fraction of the price) Nivada Grenchen

woah that zenith is cool and unique, not something you see every day

my favorite diver chrono is probably the zodiac seadragon, not because it's a good watch, it's frankly an overpriced mall watch from the early-mid 2000s, but rather because it was my father's watch and so it has sentimental value to me
