    Hello
    I know that the vintage Zenith with cal 135 is pretty expensive.
    At lest those one that has the chronometer label in the dial , and has the big case , 37mm ex crown I think.

    But what about the Zenith 2000 serie , with 35mm case. That also run the cal 135 chronometer movement.
    What is a fair market value for exempel this one, I guess I pretty big difference ?

    Best regards / M

    The 2000 typically trade for significantly lower prices. More importantly, I believe the dial on the one you show to be a fake, with a crude "2000" added to a dial that was not a chronometer.

    That dial is totally bogus. Looks like something off a cal 40

    the first 2 the 2 in 2000 looks to thick and is not in line. The last one looks right but I’d stay away. Here’s one that’s been around the block a few times but no takers.

    one with sunburst ?

    pics of the inside etc? Why do you want to buy it? That’s the question you have to ask yourself.

    like I said, you should always ask yourself why you want any particular watch. Unless the last one is dirt cheap, save for something better. A 40T Chronometer is a great alternative to that 2000.
