Zenith Chronomaster Grande Date vs Frederique Constant Open heart beate Manufacture
Which one would you pick and why?
I akready have an Defy Classic Chrono Aero and several other Rolexes, but now I'm looking after a more dressy watch. All your opinions appreciated. |

i don't see a picture of the zenith so can't comment. as for the fc, the dial from 4-7 would leave me guessing as to the exact time - it looks good, but not so sure of it's practicality.

Considering how much they cost, I think you're getting a whole lotta watch with the Constant. However, you can't go wrong with the Zenith in any stretch.
Personally, I like the face of the constant better but I think another strap would go better on that type of watch - something like the one on the Zenith.

the zenith by mile.
I would pick another model but comparing Zenith with Frederique Constant is like comparing Rolex with Oris Zenith is by far the best of the 2
