DavidSW incoming! Zenith El Primero Striking 10th

Wow, just got home and experienced the joy of opening a package from DavidSW. DavidSW is such a class act. I traded in my Rolex Polar Explorer II 216570 for this new Zenith. David made the transaction so easy. I think I started thinking about it on Tuesday of last week, chatted online on Wednesday and agreed to terms on Thursday. I sent him by watch on Friday, and now here it is Tuesday and I have my new Zenith. Wow, just wow! And DavidSW set my new watch to West Coast time - that's great customer service. Just impressed all the way around.

The watch is just fantastic. And to think I did not even know this watch existed 3 weeks ago. Can I still be on Rolex Forums now that I sold my Rolex?

Congrats!

I would love to add an El Primero to my collection but I am not sure yet where it will fit... This being said, enjoy yours in great health!

Zenith watches are exceptional, but I don't need to tell you that. Congratulations on your new watch!

David is a great guy. He made my Sub purchase easy as can be. The Striking 10th is a really cool watch. I've always been interested in Zenith but just have never pulled the trigger on the brand.

That's a beautiful watch. It'll need regular servicing though, they have he reputation of being the " Ferrari " of wristwatches.
