One of the most beautiful watches I've ever owned, and I've owned a few.
Zenith El-Primero HW 02 0050 420.
It is IMVHO, indistinguishable from new, I collected it this AM from a forum member.
It came with a beautiful unmarked bracelet, but I couldn't wait to wear it, so I stuck it on a strap.
Not made up me mind about the strap/bracelet yet, rather like the strap.
It's a bit of an enigma, almost NOS.
Manufactured pre 2000, it has the square logo on the crown and that stopped in 2000.
The warranty card was stamped in Nov 2010 by TRANQUD, SALO-VIASAN-CARLO ITALY, where it probably remained since manufacture.
It had a full service in July 2022.......and now it's ALL mine.
The size is 40mm, I find it wears 'small'

I'd hate to be with you when you're on your own.
Those and the Chronomasters are hidden treasures. I am sure you are going to love it.
THIN is the new BLACK
Yes so they don't cover up the subdials too much.Originally Posted by Griswold

Beautiful watch and I guess pretty unusual. Really nice

Looks great especially on the strap.
Looks good. Is that the one from SC?
Yes
Nice. Got there in the end
A truly classic look, especially on that strap ! It makes me think of an air-cooled 911 ;-)
I had the auto version for a while. Lovely piece, hope you enjoy it - this was from 2005 so a little while ago..

You've made a good choice there. That was a great buy. Nice watch!
I had one of these a few years ago - I think I may have sold it on here. Lovely watch that I regret selling, a bit different too.
I’m sure you’ll enjoy it.
Here’s mine…why did I sell it?
Really nice. Thanks for sharing

Glad you are enjoying the watch Dave, and good to meet you yesterday.
It's the nicest condition HW I've ever seen, I'll probably regret selling it one day.
I've got one of these. Exactly the same as Tidybeard's above. Bought it from a grey in New York. Without checking think it was 2012 and NOS. Ithat had seen one sold on here and just immediately thought it looked a cracking watch. Very slim and just a well made thing
Get it out every so often and think I really should wear it more
Good catch that. Well done
Yes Pete, it was a pleasure.
Loving the watch.
A cracking watch and looks great on the strap
