Hi Paul,
: Great catch Mick. A quick scan of the Rossler book has no mention
: of this example. There are other gold cased Primero's of the
: same period featured in the book but not this one.
I talked with Mr. Rössler about this watch in Munich. Mine is the only example he did ever see. The similarities to the ref. A 3817 are obvious. Mr. Rössler thinks that the surfaces and edges of the case should be executed like on the case of this steel version. Though, I would be glad to find a second example for comparison.
: I'm sure the
: experts over on the Zenith forum like LouS will have something
: to say and be keen to see this. Here is the link:

I will will present the watch there after taking a few more documentary pictures.
Cheers,
Mick
