Amazing doesn't even start to describe.... Zenith W40801 and G20802
andrewluff
Seeing one of these amazing pieces is almost impossible... but can you imagine seeing 2 next to each other on the same day? It's like a horse race where they are riding unicorns!!
The amazing W40801 in white gold and the G20802 in yellow gold
Not only are the cases, dials, etc in beautiful condition, just look at those bracelets!! I can honestly say I have never felt bracelets that flexed so smoothly and felt so comfortable against the wrist... I really did not think it was possible!

An orange marker... Can do miracles! Fun aside, A true watchcollector is openminded, and i know Andrew is both. Beside, if one wants to collect vintage, or if i would, it’s better to put your money into these instead of.... Rolex, let’s say, less risk of getting scr@*ed, mon...

Well, the original A 386 starts to be quite high in price, nowadays...

Agreed,... But compared to Valjoux Daytonas and, the EP-powered Daytonas(espcialy the steel one),we are still far away. Bottomline for me still is, this mouvement stays exceptional .If one thinks about the fact that it was conceived,designed in a time when Cad-Cam d...

Yes, a historical movement and a dial full of charm. The interest on this reference is fully justified. But for an all correct and in good condition one, we are not far from the Dayto Zenith At my big surprise... As I am trying to " catch " one which is truly beautiful and 100% correct... An A 386 in steel, I mean. Prices go faster than the time you need to find one. alas. Best, Nicolas

Intrigued by the recessed crown . . . . . . which I can't recall ever seeing on another chronograph hailing from Switzerland. Are there others besides vintage Seikos? Art

One of the top Baselworld surprises for me - Zenith El Primero A386 Revival
andrewluff
After spending the last few days in Basel, I have to say that one of the highlights and surprises of the whole 2019 show for me was the A386 Revival! On paper, this watch should not appeal to me as it not my normal style being quite classical and 38mm... however after getting a close up look at the trio, I must say that I think it is a stunning re-edition and one of the set will be destined for my collection. I was lucky enough to be able to compare the new versions against the original, other than now being ... .
