Hello all. Up for sale or trade is a rather rare Zenith El Primero Ref. 30.0500.400/21 from the early 2000s. The watch features a 38mm 18k yellow gold case surrounding a black dial and a custom caseback. It's worth pointing out that the watch is hard to photograph and the dial does have some patina. However, with the contrasting black and gold, it is hard to see. Underneath is a recently serviced Zenith caliber El Primero 400 movement beating with a strong amplitude over 260 degrees and good accuracy. As pictured, the watch comes on a leather strap with no box or papers.

I am asking $5995 via bank wire or Zelle, or PayPal+fees or Venmo (if you have good feedback / references). Have references here, Reddit, TRF, and 100% feedback on eBay. You can reach me via PM /[email protected].

Thanks for looking.

Zenith SA is a Swiss luxury watchmaker. The company was started in 1865 by Georges Favre-Jacot at the age of 22, in Le Locle in the canton of Neuchâtel. Zenith was purchased by LVMH in November 1999, becoming one of several brands in their watch and jewellery division. Jean-Claude Biver became Interim CEO in 2017, replaced CEO Aldo Magada, who replaced Jean-Frédéric Dufour in 2014.

Zenith has a long reputation for the quality and precision of their watches. It is one of the Swiss watch manufacturers that still produce their own movements in-house.

The El Primero calibre, which was first released in 1969, and still produced today, was one of the first automatic chronograph movements and has a frequency of 36,000 alternations per hour (5 Hz). This high rate allows a resolution of 1⁄10 of a second and a potential for greater positional accuracy over the more common standard frequency of 28,800 alternations per hour (4 Hz). The El Primero was honoured with a 2012 release of the El Primero Stratos Flyback Striking 10th, limited to 1,969 pieces (in honour of the original 1969 release date), that housed the same 36,000 vph movement and a sub-dial measuring in tenths of a second to make a complete rotation every ten seconds.
