It is always the same story...
A lot of brands statr to increase the number of references because they believe that they will speak to a large customers base... then they realize that when a client visits an AD, the reference he wants is not available! At the end, there is a costs cutting plan due to the economic context which aim is to divide by 3 the number of references... I have several brands in my mind with such story...

Hands on review of the Zenith Elite Ultra Thin Lady Moonphase (thanks to Macha!)
The Elite Ultra Thin Lady Moonphase was presented by Zenith in 2011, symbolizing the return of the ambition of the brand toward women customers. Available in 14 (if I'm not wrong!) different versions, it belongs to the rare category of watches that offer ...
Ok, I have to admit that I did skip the text and the lovely watch first
and scrolled down the page to look for photos of that lovely lady. Now the lovely watch. I agree with every "pros" you mentioned. As for the only "cons", I think the finish is good enough for most ladies, except connoisseurs.
Ditto - look at the pics, then read the story!
And speaking of the pictures, was there a watch with blue strap (caseback view) and the other with black? Or is it a trick of lighting? Cheers, Cazalea
it is because I shot a different watch for the picture of the movement.
I was not happy with the ones I took with Macha's watch. Fx
Beautiful , absolutely beautiful.
But to be accurate you still have to have a date. The moonphase will tell you what phase of the moon is occurring , you can never have a moon phase without a date. My opinion. It will look dumb. Forgive me for being blunt. A time only watch without moonph...
Geross, may I suggest a look at the Lange Emil?
The accuracy is incredible, and there is no date. But there is a very neat book from Lange on the instructions to set the moon to the hour and minute! Best Joe PS. This watch looks great on this beautiful lady!
Yes it does look good on this charming lady.
Zenith is a good brand. I just express my opinion. Haven't seen the watch in person but i am sure its lovely. Cheers Geross.
THe moonphase watches without date have a little something others don't have.
They have a touch of poetry, of charm... and of course the Emil Lange belongs to this category! Fx ...
14 variations of the same watch???
FrX Thank you and Macha for the review and opinions. I was already stuck in the first paragraph when you stated there are 14 variants of this watch. The logistics of component inventory and assembly must be tedious and subject to the risk of producing a r...
Melvyn, don't you think...
a brand under the helm of the LVMH watch division should be used to that? Just saying... ;-) Magnus
huummm... maybe with a different method...
At the end, using the concept of limited editions is clever because the catalogue of the permanent collection remains quite stable. So these references don't need to be removed from the catalogue, they expire by themselves! Fx
