houndoggie 58 Posted August 12, 2011 It's more zenith el Primero than daytona, but very nice one nonetheless Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AustinTech 0 Posted August 12, 2011 Those aren't that expensive, a few thousand US. I've seen them in person, nice, but nothing special. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's just far too common. Looks like every other 7750 watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mianos 0 Posted August 12, 2011 I am with Austintech on that one. They are in the windows of every watch shop in Zurich for some reason. When I worked there I went and had a closer look a few times. I think they are a very nice watch for the price if you want an original in the same style as some of the more expensive brands and you also would like some sort of after sales service. (ps. I'm not arguing that you could'nt also buy a pile of quality reps for the same and if one fails or gets scratched start on the next one. ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
