Monday’s Watch : Hitting “Vintage” at 25 years

 
By: Jay (Eire) : April 29th, 2024-12:46
On the way to the office. A 25 year old watch this year. Pretty crazy. Does that make it officially “vintage”? I think 25 years safely meets the cutoff, even by conservative standards. I know for some perhaps 20 years is considered vintage. With this one ...  

I for one prefer the steel bezel daytona’s to the ceramic ones

They have more soul and less plasticky feeling to them. Thanks for sharing!

You just make me want to wear mine. ;)

When was the Zenith released? 1991 or so?

1989, from memory!

 
By: amanico : April 29th, 2024-15:05

88 I think.

 
By: Jay (Eire) : April 29th, 2024-16:19

I checked, you are right. 1988.

 
By: amanico : April 30th, 2024-02:53

1995 checking in….

My first dip into “vintage” late last year and really loving it. ...  

Impressive!

Super. Black on gold is hard to beat.

It also lines up well with your user name location hint. It’s very Miami!

Had no seen this one in a while! Glad you still enjoy it!

Thanks! I recall that you didn’t quite gel with yours (which happens), but it happens to be my favorite.

 
By: Lankysudanese : April 30th, 2024-04:21

True! I have yet to find another speedy to replace it

 
By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : April 30th, 2024-17:20

Love the orange on orange.

 
By: Jay (Eire) : April 30th, 2024-01:26
What makes this one cool is it’s really not your everyday Speedy.

Thanks for the nod, Jay. It’s a little different from the regular speedy’s, in every facet in its design, that it completely satisfies my quirky taste in watches.

I love every single Daytona I’ve ever seen.

 
By: gary_g : April 29th, 2024-20:11
One of the best watches ever made (imo). ...  

I’m maybe not sold on every one, but a vast majority for sure.

 
By: Jay (Eire) : April 30th, 2024-01:27
Looking good with those two.

Love your pieces. Not a dayto guy but

If you had to put a gun to my head, it would be the preceramic dayto, and yes, in black! And I’d probably wear it with that outfit as well. Your wrist shots never disappoint 👍

Not a huge fan of the steel ceramic myself, but the precious metal ceramic feels like a better package to me.

That said, I’m with you on the pre ceramic train.
