This is your Bring A Loupe for April 1, 2016. A Zenith Chronometre With Caliber 40T 1 OF 11 The dial of this Zenith reveals so much about this chronometer, even quoting the name of its caliber 40T in a very interesting script above the seconds sub-register. Zenith boasts incredible credentials when it comes to chronometer movements, its caliber 135 notably winning the chronometer competition from the Neuchatel Observatory for nothing less than 5 years in a row, from 1950 to 1954. The 40T is of smaller dimensions but displays the same level of quality and precision, through a simple ye

5711 white vs 5711 blue
Curious as to the consensus here. Do you think that down the road, when the insanity ends, that the white will have more collector interest then the blue?

BLRO resale affected?
