I think Zenith is my new favourite brand, picked up a couple in quick succession :)
I’d love to see a thread full of Zeniths, go on post them up!

Zenith are certainly my favourite brand and I have this one which is by far my favourite Zenith model.....
This one should get more wrist time…

Outstanding pieces
I also acquired my first Zenith earlier this year.
I love Zenith as well. My Classic Cars model with Zenith rubber strap.

Zenith Rainbow Elite 670 – 1998
39mm; 9mm thick
Worn every day for 18 years, now rarely gets an outing. Find it hard to read given I now need reading glasses.
02.0473.670 - SS with white dial & black bezel

Got 2 at the moment. 1 of 50. Special Ltd EditionCP2
And a steel Stratos Flyback Rainbow Re-Edition
Superb - I think Zenith are underrated.

Can someone explain the differences between the tipo cp2
With Automatic,Chronometro or flyback on the dial I looked online but can’t work it out.
There's the 2016-on limited edition (1000) Zenith Heritage Cronometro TIPO CP-2:
https://www.zenith-watches.com/en_en...egendary-watch
- and as shown in CatalystGuy's post above. A homage to the Cairelli-Roma watch. 'Automatic' on the dial, solid caseback.
Around the same time they issued a limited edition (50) one for PuristSPro, as shown in MartynJC's post above and in his post @
https://forum.tz-uk.com/showthread.p...of-fifty-gt-gt
- 'Cronometro' on the dial, clear caseback.
And given the success of those they now make the the Zenith Cronometro CP-2 Flyback, 2018-
https://www.zenith-watches.com/en_en...flyback-1.html
- 'Flyback' on the dial, clear caseback.

Isn't it about time they re-issued this?

Here's mine. Lovely timepiece and my favourite watch.
Nice watches! :)
I’m a big fan of their vintage stuff, particularly what I like to call the A-team from the late 60s... Here are my A384, A385, A3817 and A386:
2010 Zenith El Primero Pilot Chronograph, only made for two years before being replaced by a big date version.
and my Captain Chronograph

Used to have 2 or 3 more Zeniths but this is what is left.
Cheers

The two in the collection at the moment...
And a close up
And a few that have come and gone in the past year or so...
Not the best pic but the Rainbow got sold to fund the incoming Pilot big date.
And I have this in storage so no DIY pics.
Actually it was mistakenly revealed af Basel in 2016, and under embargo to October 2016, I recieved one of the first around the October that year (when everyone was clamoring for the new Daytona)
Sadly LE re-issue, means nothing because they followed the speedy model and started churning out variants left right and centre.
I postef this before, but here’s the variant list:
-October 2016, launch of CP2
-Purists Pro CP2 (cronmetero on dial)
-Unknown CP2 with olive nato (could be part of the original 1000, but has a completely different reference)
-aged bronze
-aged steel
-Watches of Switzelrand LE (reverse panda dial)
my only one, monster of a thing but rather attractive too!
CP-2 which I alternate between OEM green camo on deployant and black leather. Love this watch

No probs
The pictures i found in mid 2017 did have ?/1000
Same dial as the re-issue, but It Came on an Olive fabric strap rather than the croc.
Could mean a few things, sales on the original didn’t do well and they split the run into to two variants, they offered the fabric strap in some regions where the standard gator strap wasn’t fashionable, or just did a second batch of LEs and weren’t transparent about it.
I’ll have a root around, i saved the refence numbers somewhere.
A favourite of mine - bought off TZ a few years ago and second hand it is very good VFM. El primero movement, lovely matt dial etc.

Don't have one yet but on my list as my next watch!
Thanks for all the CP-2 information.
I don’t want one,I need one
The A277, DeLuca first series, original CP2 were on my list before the prices went too high, but fortunately managed to get the first on my list at least -
