RPK, yes I'm aware of that. Have you seen Zenith's current offerings? What are they smoking in there?

Javadog- Im sure you know- but one of the reasons that your original Rolex Daytona is worth so much is that it has in it the Zenith El Primero 36000bps column wheel movevment. Still regarded as the best chorongraph movement ever produced. Rolex did not have a chronograph movement.
