This release as well as the 385 have Zenith on a bit of a roll, they both look very good to my eyes.

New Zenith Chronomaster Sport

Seems like a good effort from Zenith. New in-house caliber, date background matching the dial color and $9500 with strap or $10,000 on bracelet. Monochrome review here: monochrome-watches.com / Photo: Zenith Photo: Zenith Photo: Zenith ...  

I noticed that too...

I believe it was because of the embargo which was lifted today.

Compared with Daytona white dial...

... on this photo. Since 2 days they put Bernie with his gloves on all pictures on internet so I miss him here ;-) just kidding! I like the Zenith...it has the grat advantage: it is available for buying immediately right now... no wait list, no premium fe... 

From a technical standpoint, it is simply brilliant

Zenith has nailed it with the much improved enhancements to its half-century old El Primero. Maybe a few tweaks to the design: 39-40mm instead of 41mm Drop the date for a more symmetrical dial layout Change the 5mins interval marking from black to normal ... 

Darn and heck this is a nice watch!

Gosh!

I don't know why but...

Zenith, IMO, just can not get their modern chrono design 'right'. So...TagHeuer...? No? Shouldn't Zenith be so much more?? This is a a fine looking watch but... at a moment's glance... you immediately feel the composition is 'somehow' off. Sigh... somethi... 

Conversation in the Zenith boardroom...

People want the Daytona but Rolex won't produce nearly enough. Prices are approx. $29K for a white dial and $26K for a black dial on the secondary market. MSRP is a little above $13K. Everybody's mad but they all have their names on this supposed "waiting... 

This is a very sad copy IMO. Rolex lawyers may even be on the case.

One should not be surprised if asked whether he wears a fake Daytona on the wrist...

This kills me

How can one write a marketing message on a scale that is different to said message This easily disqualifies the watch to me. NOT a tool watch. ...  

Could you explain? The chrono times at 1/10 of a second due to a 5hz movement.

The central chrono seconds hand is literally connected directly to the escapement.

Take away the ceramic bezel and NOBODY will refer to a Daytona

1 mm bigger Completely different case Overlapping subdials Typically coloured zenith subdials No screw down pushers Date ..... Because of a similar ceramic bezel it isn’t a Daytona Anyway I love this one

Hmmm

 
 By: keks : January 22nd, 2021-01:55
No date and all black dial perhaps I would have considered... not bad though

How you could mistake the Tri Colour layout for a different brand is beyond me... and the 1/100 th indications on the bezel really is different too. A 3 register chronograph with black bezel in a round case

will always look similair but i think, especially for all the connaiseurs/wis here you can spot the difference at Covid length !

πŸ˜‚ ... at covid length

For me it’s better than those 2 together

 
 By: Bruno.M1 : January 22nd, 2021-08:21
And I own the other 2

I like it better as well.

Really..well then we already have a mkt πŸ˜‰

As in better than speedy?

 
 By: redcorals : January 23rd, 2021-03:55

I must reckon that I quite like it, and I have even considered calling my AD to order one

 
 By: 1WatchMan : January 23rd, 2021-01:05
But I have decided to remove my finger from the trigger at the moment. I would definitely like to see it in the flesh soon, and who knows what will happen afterwards...
