Debuting my El Primero!

I purchased this Zenith El Primero Pilot automatic last week, I previously had the El Primero HW chronograph but prefer the Pilot.

Perfect 42mm size, super nice movement, 59 hour power reserve, great strap and I just love two-register chronos.

Thanks for looking.

Cheers,

-Marc

Congrats Marc, looks great


I'm not usually a fan of chronos, but Zenith have done such a neat job with this Pilot model

Very clean and sharp Zenith Pilot, in contrast to what they were producing a few years back.

I could even say, look out IWC...
