Howdy partner! Your site is great i've been referring to it for values for around 5 years now. Bought a few things too from you. Anyway this watch here is a first for me. It landed yesterday. Ohh is it pretty! 44mm without the crown, not 40, superb quality and condition. All original I would say. Almost too big and heavy to wear. I have a good idea of the value, I just want to hear your opinion? I think its worth considerably more than my best zenith special. Sorry the pics do it no justice. I have much better ones but they are too big. These are the first ones i saw. THe watch has a stainless steel dust cover and screw on stainless steel back. not scratches like new! Looking forward to hear from the zaf, cheers!tavi.jpg

I nmust say I have not had one before, but that doesn't *necessarily* mean it's worth more than the Zenith Special. I'd value this in line with the Doxa version which can go anywhere from $700-900. Just my opinion and it can certainly be wrong.
