Yes, El Primero movement was developed by them for chronograph and since then most of the brands use their movements for chronograph. Daytona also uses their movement if i'm not wrong.

Separately, they also have the elite movement which is equally outstanding. They're one of the oldest and established watch maker who invested in their own inhouse movements. Actually, they're also very innovative with their watch designs... well, partly because the owner is a flamboyant guy and a visionary/idealist, i feel.


This is what i own...if you like chunky and heavy watch...you'll like the "feel" of the watch.

wow, that's a very nice watch.

i was surfing their website and their watches r unique. gotta see them in person to appreciate it.

wolfeyes1974, whats the damage for this watch?

[wolfeyes1974]

Bought it somewhere around Aug 2006...it's then retailing at $9k...think i got close to $8k...

sorry can't remember the price exactly cos i bought it together with my GP Sea Hawk which is around the same price i think...

thanks

Here's my mustard dial Zenith Rainbow Diver. It has a full set of numerals, 1 to 12 due to the date window placement between 4 and 5.

It is a bit small (38mm) and dressy by diver standards, but a godsend for the small wristed. It houses the Elite in-house automatic movement which is claimed be be the thinnest.

The clasp is the deployant type which is very strange for a diver.








Note: I'm looking for some extra pocket money. So, if anyone is interested I am willing to sell this discontinued watch. Condition is easily 95% complete with box and papers. Warranty has expired, unfortunately. Please PM or email me.

I own a Chronomaster XXT Open. I love the feel, the looks and how it fits my hand perfectly.

Here's a pic of my watch (borrowed image)
