Zenith's New Lacquer Dial El Primero Offers A More Refined Take On A Sporty Classic
During the week of SIHH, Zenith took over a palatial suite at the Grand Hotel Kempinski in Geneva, where we were shown an addition to the brand's iconic El Primero lineup. The new model features a lacquer dial, in either black or white (both equally attractive options, if I may say so myself). The fact that this model commands only a few hundred dollars more than its non-lacquered counterpart makes it a worthwhile choice for anyone with a penchant for in-house movements, refined sporty design, and modern watches with respectable lineage. 1 OF 6 First, let's take a quick look at some technical aspects. Inside the 42 mm (x 12.75 mm) stainless-steel case is Zenith's in-house El Primero 400 B, a self-winding movement that features 50 hours of power reserve.

J serial Diver runs fast on wrist, is it normal?
Hi all,I'm new to AP and just got my 15710 Diver recently. I've tested it for few days and found that if I let it rest on the table with the crown down position, its accuracy is almost spot on; once I put it on my wrist, it ran fast and gained about 1 second every two hours. My question is, is it normal for the calibre 3120? Does it sound like a re-banking issue?Many thanksLi

Your thoughts.....
Hello guys I'm getting ready to get a new piece, I'm between the Patek 5980 in SS with blue dial or the Sky Dweller in white gold with bracelet and black dial. Please let me know what your thoughts are on both watches. The 5980 is pre-owned in perfect condition and the Sky-Dweller is brand new. The price of both watches are very close to each other. I just want to get some opinion from TRF before I make my decision. Thank you guys!!!

Sky Dweller Changed to Batons
I've just noticed the entire range is now batons with numerals having been removed.
