Wow Nilo! you have just spelt paixao with a BIG "P"....
And I am totally with you "meu irmao". To me, the "El Primero" mouvement is not only a "Great" mouvement but "The" benchmark for all other automatic chronograph mouvements which were developed since!
Abracos,

You are correct about the passion ...
But I also dream of an El Primero V2.0.
It's about time.

Great write up for a great watch
Excellent write-up for a beauty of a re-edition.
I know some purists frown at the New Vintage 1969 edition, but i've always had a soft spot for them.
Zenith definitely got it RIGHT with this one.
Thanks for sharing
Waiting indeed
not only for another Zenith re edition but
for your marvelous future reviews.
Truly enjoyable read from
first to the last sentence.
Sincerely
Damjan

Thank you Stefan ...
As you and all should know I'm very "infidel" to my watches but this one is a definition of a keeper.

Can't agree more
If I may, a couple of pictures of this gorgeous watch 
You didn't mention the second subdial which is going from white to grey with the light and the lovely dial, nearly off-white.
My only complain is that reset button needs to be firmly pushed to have the hour count hand going back in the right position every time.
About the reset button ...
My experience with several El Primero varies.
The new ones, requires a more firm push that improves a bit with use.
My "old" ones, after passing for the wise hands of my watchmaker's team, are more responsive to the chronograph reset button.

Summer watch ?
Additional pictures with this new leather Nato strap
Stupendous strap... Vintage leather?
would prefer a standard construction with some slightly contrasting (brownish) contrast though...
