I do like those El Primero engined Zeniths. That looks gorgeous with it's chocolate? dial, congratulations! :thumbup:
Saw this today and could simply not resist buying it. A Zenith El Primero Captian Chronograph with the dark brown dial. I've admired it for ages but it was always too much at full retail.
Today it was on a good reduction in Crouches of Cardiff but a bit of friendly negotiation reduced the price even further. Sorry for the poor picture quality, as most of you know it's not my thing. Just as a heads up there are a fair few Zeniths in the Fraser Hart group at the moment on offer and Crouches, at least, seemed quite prepared to get me a watch from another shop to look at.

Very classy, very understated, lovely piece.
Display back? If so, you know you want to show it off ;)
Very nice, there are a whole number of attractive El-primero designs at the moment.
If you don;t mind telling us, what sort of discount was available from RRP?
I managed close to 30% off full retail.Originally Posted by carryondentist
Thanks for all the nice words, I'm just mesmerised by the workings at the moment Just keep gazing through the display back.
The dial changes colour depending on the angle the light strikes it. anywhere from plain chocolate through to almost black.
That is beautiful. Haven't seen that colour before and it's really attractive.
Well done
Wow thats such a nice watch enjoy :)
Nice watch. I noticed that in Crouches and almost bought it myself. Great value :)
Zenith have got their act together with some of their latest El Primero Chronographs, and this is no different. I spotted the black version locally and just loved it. The brown dialled model looks as nice. I am sorely tempted to give up a few Chronographs for one of these. Superb. 8)
Classic Zenith design and movement, great price.... can't go wrong!
thats a nice watch and a good price. Been a customer of crouchs (and Ron particularly) since a bought a Navitimer from him in about 2000 and had great service (they were in st marys street back then!)
Classy looking watch.
Much the same here, bought my first Breitling from them in 2004Originally Posted by Da Vinci

I will try tomorrow. My picture taking skills are limited or perhaps it's the camera, it's one of those does everything poweshot jobbies and the macro mode is non existent.
What I can tell you is you do get an extended warrentee if you register on-line so the watch is now covered for 3 years - yeaaaa! Also looked at the servicing costs - not so yeaaaa!
Never seen this one before. Not everyday you see a choco brown dial. Would love to see more pics!
Mmmm. Like EPs a lot and with that brown dial it's a definite winner. 8)
Absolute stunner and at a great price.
Stunning. Never saw the brown version. (only the black, blue and ivory ones)
Any chance of getting a wristshot with the sun lighting up the dial ?
cheers

Very nice! I have a hankering for a brown dialled Zenith - especially at list less 30%...
lovely watch, lovely movement. zenith are definitley back on track
That's a very nice watch & dial - congratulations
Saw an IWC at H A Rrods some time ago and was very tempted.... now - cars are arriving with the 'coffee bean' metallic finish - in the right light very nice indeed !!
Enjoy !!
Cheers, Peter
That's a lovely looking piece!
Stunning watch. I really like the newer Zenith
