Musings on Zenith and the El Primero
El Primero, translated from Spanish, means ‘the first’. The reason for its name is an obvious one why Zenith chose to name their chronograph movement that. Zenith is the first manufacture to create an automatic integrated column wheel movement, and promptly christened it the El Primero. More recently, its increasing staple of well-priced and attractive watches withRead More

GONE IN 60 SECONDS: Into the blue with the Montblanc 1858 Manual Small Second video review
It started with the 1858, which – in an insanely busy year for Montblanc – dropped out of the big blue sky. We were excited. We were titillated. We were a little flummoxed to be honest. Thoroughly embracing the spirit of the Manufacture Minerva that Montblanc acquired, it was almost a case of innovation overload. Almost. … ContinuedThe post GONE IN 60 SECONDS: Into the blue with the Montblanc 1858 Manual Small Second video review appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: This charming watch – explaining the Tudor Heritage Advisor

Review: Zenith El Primero Classic Car
Zenith's contribution to the watch world has been remarkable by any measure. For starters, it was the first manufacture to create an automatic integrated column wheel movement, fondly known as the El Primero.
