    Well, a solid gold watch should cost more! ;)

    Uh huh, that'll happen. :rolleyes::p

    I am starting to feel yearnings for a gold 13ZN. Curse you all!

    Wait, what? You see a bunch of Ultrachrons and get a yen for a 13ZN? That's a difference of a few decades and about a paycheck!

    Yes, the general Longinic stimulation of this forum has awakened that dormant desire, and it somehow erupted here.
    There will be more non sequiturs to follow.

    Well, go for it. I'm not a chronograph guy.

    I think that reference is 35 mm without crown, but measured 2 - 8 ø it's 37 or 38 mm. These cushion and C-cases are better measured that way to give a more realistic idea of what size they visually compare to in round watches.

    You Zenith guys have a taste for these odd cases from the late 60's and early 70's so it might be right up your alley.

    Yes, and MMMD doesn't have anything with Roman numerals yet. Thanks for the info.
