New Zenith Elite has surprising long power reserve

yes, surely you have a sharp eye: Which one do you prefer? Best, Magnus ...
Nice pic
Tough call. Love them both, and usually my preference runs to white metals, but....without seeing them yet in person, the rose gold seems nicer. This could change of course, and hopefully I'll view them both in person soon.
It is a watch I appreciate a lot.
It gains class and dynamism with the red gold case. Thanks a lot for this great article Magnus. Fx
The crown seems out of place with the case
Whether technically, aesthetically - or ergonomically. It looks like an afterthought that was attached to the case, but isn't that detrimental to the overall design? Or was the winding stem pulled out for setting? Perhaps this Zenith is a dream to wind - ...
