Thoughts On Zenith Defy XT 46.5mm

I am sort of loving the look of this watch - white dial and steel band. Anyone have any experience with it? I've never bought a Zenith so I've no idea what a fair price is for a new one or what the resale market is like (soft, I presume). Upscaletime.com has one BNIB for just over 4K but I know nothing of them or whether that price is great or not. Any help appreciated.

I am a fan of the brand but find the styling on this watch a bit too over the top. The El Primero movement has a long and respected history though. To each his own.

Me too. Love the brand but the bezel on this is too much for me. If you like it, then that's all that matters. The price seems reasonable, considering the El Primero is a fantastic movement.
