·Don't feel the blue sundials quite look right and price is quite steep compared to the new 1969 original.

€ 8.9k (pin buckle), online in certain countries only or boutiques and visitors to the manufacture.
It is pretended to be for sale only in the manufacture in Le Locle ... but, because it is closed (Covid issues), it is for sale in some countries through zenith websites, until Manufacture is open.
Special box.

·It will be available in the Zenith web shop in all countries in which they operate; currently that is EU but should be worldwide prob by end of 2021. This isn't a LE so should be obtainable.
Pricing: Hodinkee says $8,700 which may mean that it's cheaper in the US than elsewhere?
Overall, I quite like it really - I think the blue is a bit more visually cohesive than the original colorway, which I intend no disrespect towards. And it's nice to see the square-end chrono hand back - I like the Original 1969 but the straight chrono is a tiny letdown.
The price is a bit steep compared to the original for sure, but worth keeping an eye on secondary markets for I think.

·Love the watch, really cool; the back story seems just about as 'made up' as made up can be.

·I agree. I buy the lore about Charles Vermot resurrecting an abandoned treasure but this sounds more like something that was pitched by an advertising agency.

·Contrived was the word I was searching for in connection with this 'discovery'... Curious to see one in the metal.

·Is this a limited edition?
I see the e-shop is only available to those in France, Italy or Switzerland which is a bit rubbish for those of us in the UK!
