Ok, this one was hard for my to keep quiet about, but now I have it in my possession I felt like I had to share this one. Zenith Doublematic! This is a remarkable piece that has an alarm function, as well as a 30 min Chrono, world timer, big date and one of the most beautiful movements I have ever seen!

It will take me a bit to get the case back shot as the lighting right now is not optimal.

Thanks guys! It's 46mm. It wears slightly smaller than the Navitimer World because of the case shape. Very comfortable.

Thanks guys, I am really enjoying this model. It won't be my last Zenith, that's for sure. Fit and finish is right up with Rolex and AP. I'm very impressed with this Doublematic.
