I became aware of this brand the other day, and quite like some of their stuff. I was watching an example on ebay - pictures here, and received an offer to buy it at £219 (as opposed to the BIN price of £284). I've rejected this, because I don't feel quite comfortable about the seller, and I've also just bought another Seiko chronograph to go with my Flightmaster, so felt to be sensible I should stop for now! However, I was interested to know what anyone thought of this brand in general. I couldn't see another thread on them on the forums. In my view, they make quite a lot of interesting pieces.

I've also posted the link in case anyone else is interested in this one.

I have had several and am happy with the brand. Customer service is very good. They will sell you dial and hands (if you need them) without the need to send the watch to them. Their M.O. seems to be that they buy up NOS movements and then make them into LE’S. They did have a chronograph based on the Lemania movement a poor mans Speedie @£1,500. I do find it funny that they use about five different logo’s on their watches.

I own a Zeno Ref. 1248G Explorer with an ETA 2824 movement. It bears an, ahem, very strong resemblance to the Rolex 1016. The Zeno is a great watch and it keeps fantastic time at +/- 3 seconds per day. There are other versions of the Zeno Explorer floating around with A.Schild, as well as Miyota, movements.
