The legend that almost didn't happen, imagine how fortunate we are that one of Zenith's employees (Mr. Charles Vermot) hid all the tools and other goodies and info for this movement

By: Rogi : January 15th, 2019-14:30

if it wasn't for him, could we have seen the El Primero in Rolexes or even could we see Zenith itself, I'd like to propose a toast to Mr. Vermot, his optimism and vision for the future as well as a toast to El Primero and Zenith the movement and company w...

No doubt...I hope they will make another version this year dedicated to him

By: Ares501 - Mr Green : January 16th, 2019-00:55

Cos surely deserve it. One man vision changed history of horology. Cheers D
