Nah, not keen. Will probably look dated quite quickly.

Is the blue case and strap due to the photography, or is it genuinely that colour?

That’s Zenith’s house colour, and the case and bracelet are all ceramic. Apparently, making ceramic cases etc in a specific colour that’s consistent is incredibly difficult, and requires months of work and research to achieve; that and the quality of the calibre is why it’s so expensive.

TBH, when you compare that watch with many of the ghastly designs that footballers, rappers etc wear, and the insane price they’re willing to pay, I’d be more than happy to wear the Zenith - I just need a significant lottery win to be able to afford it!

Was idly watching a YT vid of an IWC Ingenieur being put together. Nobody thought to spell check the engraving on the bridge?
It'd bug me even if it didn't have an exhibition case back. Screenshot 2025-04-10 at 15.32.32.png

Ouch! That's making my teeth itch... Perhaps it's to show how truly-handmade it is? 🤣

Not much of a comparison to some but...

G-Shock for work

Forerunner 35 for, erm running

Oris BC3 for everyday

Tag Monaco best

Big of a hijack but any recommendations for a Tag Monaco service provider, the stopwatch has stopped working so full service required, quote from Tag was £525. GULP.

 

Try Genesis ...

My Omega hadn't be serviced for 20 years - he did a good job and was considerably cheaper that Omega
