Very Impressive ! ! What Year Produced ? ?
In Response To: Holy Grail: NOS Black Zenith 70s Square El Primer *LINK* ()


very impressive looking chrono; amazing to see it offered as NOS.

when was this model produced? I am assuming that the El Primeros were tamer looking when first introduced, and that the look got more "70's" as the decade progressed? perhaps an interesting parallel to the Autavia / Carrera / Monaco progression.

congratulations and thanks for posting the photo.
