New Arrival Has Landed . . . First Zenith!

It's the Pilot Cronometro Tipo CP-2 Flyback in aged stainless steel:

It's been on my radar for over a year now. I narrowed it down to this along with the bronze iteration, which were both released in 2018. Last summer, I almost pulled the trigger on the bronze piece. However, I was apprehensive with respect to how the bronze case would age:

IMHO, Zenith did an amazing job with both of these. I think these are much better than the revival CP-2, which was released in 2016. They also incorporate a new movement, the El Primero Cal. 405B, with Flyback function. I finally decided on the aged SS piece last week during my trip to Miami:


I had them swap out the olive colored strap for the brown strap:



Quite pleased that I finally pulled the trigger on this combo:

Have a great weekend!

Regards,

Mark

On your journey with Zenith. Bronze is great to see, honestly i like it more than any gold.

Although Zenith also made one in bronze
