My Zenith Capt Chrono

After doing some research, and looking for a good chronograph – I realized Zenith watches as alternative. They offer a chance for a great value for a complicated movement. Already have my sub –C in Rolex, so I wanted to get something different and unique. Love this watch – can be dressy and this beautiful movement – the back case is as interesting as the front. I feel that I got great sales price considering it complicated with a rose gold bezel, all in a premium brand with in house movement!

I figured it must be a good buy, since my watch was released under Mr DuFour while he ran Zenith, then Rolex bought him away to captain its ship!

Nice choice, and I agree with you that Zenith represents a great value in the world of high end horology.

Appreciate the comment – which do you own? Once I discovered zenith, and got a great deal on Ashford, who is actually in AD, I found a dealer here in Texas and saw them live. Then I knew I had to have one. There are so few…

I have Zenith Captain Elite with power reserve. I have set my eye on the El Primero Sport.My grand dad had bought a Zenith and this is how our soft spot for the brand began
