Nice watch!
Hi Andrew,
Nice watch! 
I'm glad to see that you keep enjoying it (not too worried though).
This watch was my favorite Zenith for long years, and my favorite among my watches for long too.
I still own a Rainbow Flyback (black dial) that I wear less as it has to compete to more pieces for my wrist.
Zenith is a great brand in history and this period of Zenith life (80s and 90s) was great IMO. I still hope to see them back on my heart someday.
There were some nicer models at Basel this year. At least one I could wear!
Cheers
Dje

Dear Purists Zenith has become somewhat of a black sheep in recent years. However, they have a long and important history and we have great respect for the El Primero automatic chronograph movement for its place in that history. While some of the more rec...
Zenith Prime (Reference 01.0010.420)
Hi All (and bonjour to Jerome), My example is the Prime, the first of the hand wound chronographs, produced from 1995 to 1999 and then continued as the 40mm Class El Primero HW. The Prime carries the Calibre 420 column wheel El Primero chronograph movemen...

Since you mention it . . .
I have long lusted after a sonnerie, preferably a carillon, but the wristwatch prices have been beyond my means. So I decided to look at pocket watch sonneries. I have just agreed to buy, but not yet taken possession of, a Zenith Grande Sonnerie Clockwatc...
Legibility
Thanks Kong, Nice dial and very legible, including the subdials. I didn't mention it earlier but you have reminded me to say how accurate my Zenith is. On paper it is well due for a routine service, but I can't bring myself to put it in when it keeps+2sec...
My New Zenith
Although I have for many years collected moderately priced vintage watches, I have not purchased a new timepiece in more than two decades. However, I recently broke my streak by purchasing (at a relatively reasonable price) a new Zenith Chronomaster Open ...
Welcome and thanks for posting
The Open T still draws on the traditional clean design of the earlier El Primero’s and the grey dial is the nicest of the range; good choice. Do you have it on strap or bracelet? It must be nice to see that balance wheel blazing away at 36,000 vph without...
You're Welcome...
My Open T has a black alligator strap (with metal clasp) that really adds to the watch's elegance, and I often find myself mesmerized by the oscilating "heart beat" on the face of the watch. Frankly, it was the rather unusual window on the watch's face th...
El Primero Striking 10th...steel or rose gold
enjoying the second hand and one would start to appreciate zenith's decision to play up the 10/th second foudroyante and make it the center hand, echoing it's position as the key of this distinguished chronograph. i hope you don't mind some stock photo...
