I sold my Omega HV annual calendar to a family friend yesterday because she hasn't had much in the way of wrist time lately and I felt that it's just not the kind of watch that should be locked up all the time. So, with my new bag of money, I'm looking at the XXT Grande Date by Zenith. I've never owned one before. Anybody have any good experiences with them?

Absolutely - the XXT has awesome presence. The El Primero movement in it is what Rolex used in the Daytona in the 90's (and has higher resale value then in-house movement Daytonas of the more recent). Don't buy from an AD, as they will get top dollar from you. You can find them discounted, but with all applicable warranties. PM me for several trusted sources, take it easy!

I have owned 2 Zenith watches and I have loved them both! The El Primero movement is great and the fit and finish were exceptional!
