anyone had the chance to see the Zenith Tourb's in person....

I have seen pic's of the simple Grand classic Rettrapante ( not a tourb ) and the Chronmaster open retrograde ...

I am really starting to like the looks of the Zenith brand....I am almost afraid to go into the city and see them in person...

Anyone else have any thoughts on the Zenith line...

Cheers

Mark

Picture taken from Zenith's website... Looks pretty sharp, eh, but silver bezel, silver face, silver hands...

I had typed up a nice long reply, then clicked ok, and it was gone? Probably an all knowing being saying.. Charlie, stop rumbling like an idiot.

I want to see the defy line in person, maybe september the AD says. I love how Zenith takes chances with their designs, however, I often find myself wanting more legibility from their watches. I learned the hard way with an AP ROO, beauty should not outweigh function. More than once I have laughed at myself.. Good move dumba** you spent a ton of money on a watch you can't read at dusk or in low light settings.. Then again, like the AD said the watch is about more than time telling, besides, you have a clock on your cell phone right? Ouch I say!

Zenith as far as movements, fit, finish, and feel are top notch in my book, you just have to try them on though, and see how your eyes like them. That's always been the one issue for me, I just don't love them on the wrist, makes no sense, I know.

Oh, as far as holding value, perhaps they're not the best on the market, which is a serious consideration for many people in the purchase decision I imagine..
