So it looks like part #27.03.1916.384. Anyone have access to order Zenith spare parts and can check price/availability?

Glad to see this design back.

 

Great, thanks!
I had a chance to try the watch on a black leather strap yesterday and think its a really amazeing watch! This is the first Zenith in a long time that is just spot on they really nailed it perfect size, perfect thickness, chrono hand without the star.. Etc..
I guess it must feel even more vintage once on a ladder bracelet.

Thanks for sharing! Curious to find out more details on price and availability.

 

As I posted on your thread on Watchuseek, according to Timeless Luxury Watches, the price is only $384. I emailed them about availability, but they haven't replied.

 

Wow, thats very reasonable....just paid $500 for a leather FPJ strap and it really puts things into perspective lol.

 

Are we considering whether this might fit one of the original/vintage versions? That'd be fantastic.

 

I haven't handled any in the metal, but aren't the revival models the exact same dimensions as the originals? If so, the new bracelets should work on vintage examples.

 

Haha I was just thinking this...I doubt so but if it does, its a game changer

 

The case proportions is supposed to be the same as the original. So in theory it should fit. But no one has been able to confirm yet.....

 

Has anyone ordered the bracelet separately yet?

 

Yes. I bought, and then sold the bracelet. I purchased for my new vintage 1969 with 20mm lugs. Despite the lug holes lining up OK, the 1mm gap would be too much to deal with. Sinc Zenith doesn't make a straight 20mm end link that would fit, I moved the bracelet.

The clasp is pretty basic, stamped metal, but the overall bracelet fit and finish is fine for the price.

For those thinking about purchase for a vintage A384, I think it's worth the risk. The bracelet can always be sold at cost to someone who bought the revival A384 on leather.

 

Hey guys, I am thinking about ordering a new one for my vintage a385. Supposedly lug size is 19.6mm so 19mm it will be a bit loose. Zenith HQ are asking me to send the watch for them to assess, but IMHO the shipping cost and risk does not compensate. Will let you know once it arrives

 

Will you compensate the wiggle room with some inlays?
