    Hi,

    this one is right now for auction on ebay Germany, seller provides only very bad pictures (this is the best), claims the watch beeing 'original'

    I'm pretty shure this is a redial

    Should be able to take better pictures with his Nikon :eek:

    The spelling of "chronometer" and printed hour indices are wrong.

    Good call out! Nowadays I don’t even invest my time in auctions with bad pictures. Although I’m sure there are a few auctions where the seller genuinely is lazy and you just have to ask for better pictures...

    Never seen this on a 14381 and given the other discrepancies I’m guessing it isn’t right on the OP watch.

    Not on a late watch like this one, I'm fairly sure. Is the one you show there a 2852? Love those indices..!

    Sorry boys ;)

    Been in the Zenith world lately and the spelling is over the place

    Chronometre on the dial Chronometer on the movement or vis versa
