THINGS WITH SPRINGS CH CHAT 02/12/23

Bill Sohne · Feb 12, 2023

hi everyone

Just a FYI . this is still a work in progress..... The Things With Springs Clubhouse room is meant for a Live watch forum experience with a small GTG. We are striving for a collector to collector conversations.. having collectors either email me photo of there watch ( or they can join the forum and reply to this thread ) so we can " chat" about in real time... Just to be clear we dont have to talk about a posted watch ... this is a free flowing room on topics on vintage watches and things around watch collecting ... And at the end of the GTG when everyone leaves the CH room... and the room no longer exist ... This thread will remain as a quasi record of the event and we can later go back and refer to.... Hear you at 4 pm EDT Sunday ....

THINGS WITH SPRINGS CH CHAT 02/12/23

Here's the listing for the Zenith I'd posted from Miami last week:

https://www.windvintage.com/zenith-covergirl-el-primero-reference-a3818-unpolished

"This Zenith “Covergirl” El Primero reference A3818 is such a sweetie! Collectors can attest to the fact that the Zenith El Primero reference A3818 is one of the most desirable vintage Zenith models. Its nickname "Covergirl" derives from its feature on the cover of the Zenith book by Manfred Rössler."

This is sure to spring convo...

Sold for $425

It is based on a SKX007 (still have the box) but the only thing left of the original watch is the mid case and the movement.
Everything else has been modified or replace.
This is not a swap with cheap parts from eBay. The dial is a slightly chocolate dial with matching hands made on my specific, as well as the caseback with a calendar wheel that has been "aged".
Sapphire crystal, updated bezel and posted bezel insert that I have done my self.
