This is my new arrival: ZENITH Ultra Thin on Caliber 681 automatic. This is my 3rd Zenith in the Elite line and what struck me about this one is that it sports the marquee Star caliber of Zenith. Some key stats: 40mm case, 42mm with crown, only 8.5mm thick, 20mm lugs with strap narrowing to 18mm. This one is just 48m from lug tip to lug tip. Crystal, which is almost all face, is 36mm.
I just love this brand and the proven accuracy of all its creations.




The wrist shot.

Thanks for the kind words, Graham. Yes, it's on the small side but the design and milk lacquered dial plus that "STAR" really sang to me. I've always been impressed by Zenith calibers and for some time now have been pining for one more addition. I'm sure you feel the same way about that powerful Zenith chrono of yours. (At the AD yesterday, I was torn between the PloProf and this). Besides, I get trapped in crummy meetings at the office a lot and I need to tone down my wrist firepowersubtlelaugh.gifsubtlelaugh.gifsubtlelaugh.gif

Big congrats Jeff! Zenith is one of the most respected brand around: Very few came with such watch engineering achievement through the last 146 years they been there: In my eyes, only beaten by Patek, Breguet, Jæger-L and Vacheron-C, the "Fantastic 4"thumbsup.gif

Agreed.  Great looking pick up.  Zenith is one of the few Swiss manufacture that still puts out high quality timepieces at (relatively) affordable prices.

Thanks very much William!!!thankyou.gif 

Yes...your watch...my watch...subtlelaugh.gif...a great looking and well built piece from epos anyway!

BTW...the only 60mm pizza from Switzerland that comes to my mind immediately is the PAM Egiziano, so I'm VERY interested to see what you have incoming!  The Megalodon should warm up the wrist nicely for whatever 60mm beast is incoming.

Thanks! This is my favorite Dievas. The stitchings, leather color and size of the strap really goes well with the beautiful watch.

I already have an homage of the Egiziano: The original is a tiny bit out of my leaguedog smile.gif... There's other watch of this dimension...
