Zenith Pilot 5011k
Just took delivery yesterday - and absolutely loving this thing! To my surprize, I am finding the watch wearable as far as wrist comfort is concerned - it sits snug on the wrist and Titanium case makes it quite light fornthe size. Of course, there is this lugs overhang, but as a whole the watch does not look cartoonishly big when seen on my big body 
A question to MTR (your nice posts were the last straw making me to pull the trigger ) and other owners - is it normal for this caliber that the winding is pretty stiff and requires a lot of force to turn the crown?

Thanks so much, Nico!
Yes, the movement is super-special and they do not make them like this any more. 50mm, double hairspring etc. etc.
Looking awesome. Congratulations.
Seems to be the trick with bigger watches wear them snug.
Congrats! it's a tough watch to wind....
I have had mine for a few years now and still loving it. Yes, it is very difficult to wind exhibiting lots of resistance so that is typical. Enjoy, it is a special timepiece... ...
