KIH reports from a Zenith event in Boston with CEO Jean-Frédéric Dufour at Shreve Crump & Low, featuring new models and collector wrist shots.

KIH, a Traveling Purist, shares a comprehensive report from Boston, highlighting a Zenith event at the newly renovated Shreve Crump & Low. This post offers a vibrant account of community engagement, featuring Zenith's CEO, Jean-Frédéric Dufour, and a collection of attendee wrist shots. It captures the excitement of a watch enthusiast gathering, providing a snapshot of the brand's presence and collector interactions.

So, a few days later, here is the report from a Traveling Purist about his trip to Boston. Good fiends organized watch store crawling and dinner, and guess what, as greg reported, it just happened to be the same day as the Zenith event with its CEO, Mr. Dufour at the relocated, renovated Shreve Crump & Low on Newbury Street. I will post some other touristic pics and some of the wonderful new store, as well as the event + dinner afterward.

1. THE Boston.

2 . Now the watches! - Zenith event at the relocated Shreve, Crump & Low

Even the elevator door was Zenith

Mr. Dufuor's opening remark.

... and on his wrists are...

..on his right wrist, and...

... on his left wrist...

Posed for PPro. Thank you, Mr. Dufour!

3. As is customary, the attendees' wrist shots.

4. Dinner - apology for poor pics (it was very dark - please refer to gsg's report)

On my wrist... maybe a bit too big....

Fair comparison? (with 37mm "the other" Dufour)

All in all, I had tons of fun visiting Boston. Many thanks to Boston PuristS and watch friends.
Also, big thanks go to Shreve Crump & Low (Brad, Brian, Chris, and Mike) staff AND Zenith - Mr. Dufour and Ms. Ferrier (Int'l Communication Manager) for visiting and I look forward to the next opportunity to meet you.

... now in New York....

The Zenith Pilot Type 20, while impressive, appears quite large on the wrist, suggesting it's a piece not for everyone but incredible for those who can wear it.
A fellow forum member inquired about trying on the Zenith Pilot and appreciated seeing Jean-Frédéric Dufour at the event.
A contributor shared a personal connection to Boston, noting that the initial photos were taken near their office.

. . . get around! Glad you were able to meet J-F Dufour, Ken. Perhaps he'll make it our way again in the not-too-distant future. And yes - the Type 20 does look more than a bit overwhelming on your wrist. Not for everyone, but for those that can pull it off - incroyable ! Art
