Men classic: Zenith Elite 6150 For BaselWorld 2015, Zenith celebrated its 150 th anniversary (click here: ). In contrast to what many expected, the brand’s birthday present to self was not a flashy, multi-complicated and awe-inspiring pièce de résistance , instead they chose something...

I remember the period when their Elite caliber was launched I was looking for my first "serious" watch (and went on buying the Rainbow chronograph in 1997). The Elite was indeed something very unusual and well designed. I find this watch quite elegant, even if a little to conservative in style to my taste, but a v...

One of the two important mechanical movements launched at Baselworld 2015 Thanks for the Reports. Our moderators take great care when reporting on their brands and the Zenith chap is no exception.... The whole experience must be reported. Its what we call PHEW...PuristS Holistic Experience of WISdom. :-) I was impressed by two ...

Very nice review Oliver..... ......and thank you for it. The simplicity is very telling, what an excellent move from Zenith. I love the "feuille hands", very elegant. The case design is simply superb! The size 42mm for a simple watch with such a "large" dial aperture is a little "dis...

Glad you liked it... it was a pleasure putting it together - a pleasure nonetheless since we really enjoyed handling the watches and learning about their respective concepts. Best, Magnus

Up until now, my sense has long been . . . . . . that the choices for entry level collectors who valued notions of intrinsic quality and the virtues of traditional watchmaking as equally important were best represented by Glashütte Original and Grand Seiko. I'm ready to add Zenith to that list. He...

Men complication: Breguet – Tradition Chronograph Indépendant 7077 In 2005, Breguet launched its iconic Tradition collection with the 7027 model, the first timepiece to showcase the mechanisms of the movement on top of the baseplate. There have been several iterations in size and with different complications already. Thi...

Pros and Cons of this new Breguet chronograph Gents, Thank you for the report of a watch that also caught my eye during walkabout at Baselworld 2015. I knew about the independent balance wheels for time and chronograph but not that one was made of titanium so it could match it's partner in size....th...

Melvyn, point taken, but ... I think Breguet intended to have a longer PR for the chronograph, but it would have been impractical/uncomfortable to implement such. Either, because it would have been technically impossible, or the pressure on the reset pusher would be too high (the ent...

Our community hangout is the gem restaurant in town and everything that you post is the irresistible fare. Although a two-way street of sharing is always more fulfilling and worthwhile, we understand that not everyone is automatically inclined to express their thoughts and opinions on the forums and that is totally okay. There’s nothing wrong with watching the game from the sideline.
