    Hi and thank you for expressing your thoughts and opinions on a 2012 Zenith El Primero chronograph, model 03.2117.4002.
    I have been looking at them and thinking about maybe picking one up, I like the military look and love chronographs in general. I would getting appreciate any info you can share on this watch.
    Thanks and best regards

    Hi,

    My thoughts are that they are very nice watches, a very good size at 42mm, a cool looking dial. I really like the crocodile strap with tang buckle. I own a few watches with the El primero movement and I'm very happy with those.
    I researched the watch a little but there isn't much about the watch from owners, It is a toss up between this watch and the Zenith Chronomaster.
    I don't have any pictures of the watch and I don't know how to add pictures from another site.
    Thanks for the reply

    If you like it, want to own it, and can afford it, buy it. ;)

    If you want to add pictures from another site, when you create a reply, you'll see a tiny icon that looks like a picture of a mountain with the sun on the top left. Sixth one from the left. It's directly to the right of the smiley face. If you click that you can add an image URL :).

    What kind of watches are you into?

    Ok... after this I stop replying.

    Google: "zenith el primero pilot chronograph review"

    There are 3 write ups on the Rolex forum, one on a blog that's crazy in depth...

    Thanks, I greatly appreciate sharing that with me and I will try it out.
    I collect divers and chronographs mainly but I do own some vintage dress watches. I collect many brands but I tend to own more Omega's.
