I've been after a dress 2 register chrono for a while now. The hunt goes into high gear whenever @dsio pulls out his Omega cal 320. But I hadn't seen the Zenith 146DP until @Mick Tock pulled out his. So, here is mine. Albeit 35mm, not 37mm. I'm pretty happy with the edges on the lugs and bezel.

Solid choice, get the Cal 320 as well then you'll have options when you're in a two-register chrono mood. I might have to look into one of those Zeniths.

18k.
I know better than to get plated!
That case is remarkably nice and sharp, its clear from the facets on the lugs its not seen a polishing wheel

There are a few around, but mostly their dials have degraded quite a bit:

Is it the case that square pushers ALWAYS less waterproof? or was that just a flaw with Omega?

So THAT'S why there's been an exodus of timepieces out of Cambra lately!

😁

Very nice TRC, I'm grumpy with envy.

And I have 2 more pieces on the way....

I think that will make 6 or 7 new watches in the last 2 months.......

Refining your collection or just more watches?

In the end there will be more, but there has also been some interesting changes in focus. Both narrowing and broadening. Bought my first 2 Zeniths, my first Enicar, my first Tudor, etc. Will do a separate thread.
