CP-2 for CP-2-does it make sense?
Hi, I parted with my Purist CP 2 against another watch.
Here she is-just arrived and in complete original conditions. These CP-2 for Cairelli are fantastic and I am very lucky to add this particular one to the collection.

You should have kept the modern, too!
THAT is a great military Chrono! Bravo. I only have the one on the left... Alas. Best, Nicolas ...
Yes, maybe you’re right Nico.
I just like to cut a few edges here and there to ease the cargo. For example if Simon says: You can have any but only 1 CP-2 which one would you take?
No offense intended, I would never trade my modern CP2 for that watch.
For the original Zenith, yes, depending on how much $ is required. Very pleased for you though!
Thanks Michael.
And I really enjoyed my years with our anniversary CP-2. It actually led me to appreciate this rare bird in the end so it’s all good.
It is difficult to find a good vintage. You definitely have done that.
Glad the CP2 was a good springboard to get you there!
Having no emotional attachment to the modern CP-2...
I think you made a nice decision. Enjoy it!
Yes and nice UG movement as well ( UG 285P)
I think Zenith took over that movement when they started their CP-2 deliveries, but I am not 100% sure. ...
Thanks Gelato. It’s really something. I feel very lucky.
I could never have nailed that one without the help and inspiration of this great forum.
