Bit underwhelming? The proportions look really odd, and the watch seems to be really thick.

The few El Primero automatics I have held in my hands (which is only 2) tended to be on the thick side. This one is 13.6mm. Doesn't bother me though, I like a big chucky watch (works with my big chunky wrists).

Awesome - goes without saying that some pics will be great when it shows up!

which AD btw? I think you can order from zeniths website also at the moment.

I need to stop looking. I haven’t bought a new watch for a while and am getting twitchy....

We meet again 😀

I ordered from Rox up in the North East. Good people and they have always looked after me well even though I am not local.

Pics will follow, I have told them it needs to be untouched/sealed/mint or we enter messy return territory!

I returned it.

Great looking watch but I bought in a rush and when I compared it to my Daytona I quickly decided I had jumped in too quickly and got swept along with some of the hype surrounding this release.

I am going to wait for my Snoopy....patiently.

Interesting!!

Why did you send it back?
Was it to thick? What colour face did you go for?

I ordered the black dial and the face and bezel looked seriously nice.

I wasn't so happy with the fit and finish of the end links on my example, others I have seen since have looked better in that respect so mine might not be representative of what to expect.

As I say it was this and a bit of buyers remorse, I am supposed to be waiting for my Snoopy and got a bit bored in the meantime.

Haha fair enough, from pictures and videos I've seen it would be the black I'd go for. Am waiting for shops to reopen to go and have a look.

Curious to what colour Daytona you have?

I prefer the white Daytona but the black in the Zenith

Thanks

Best view one in the flesh I think as you say.

My Daytona is a late model 116520 with the Chromalight lume. It is very mint indeed!!!

But, you have a Daytona to compare it to! 😀.
