Capolavoro sì (l'#ElPrimero di #Zenith è forse il miglior movimento meccanico mai prodotto), ma, visti i prezzi, non lo definirei regalo 😂 . E comunque l'#orologio protagonista dell'articolo nell'#anime apparteneva a #Jigen mentre #LupinIII indossava quello in foto (che costerà un centesimo dell'altro). Solo 200 pezzi che andranno a ruba: Chronomaster Lupin The Third è il regalo in limited edition https://www.pianetadesign.it/news/solo-200-pezzi-che-andranno-a-ruba-chronomaster-lupin-the-third-e-il-regalo-in-limited-edition.php

Here's some Saturday viewing: How Charles Vermot Saved the Zénith El Primero – In His Own Words! This amazing RTS documentary features the story and more context from the re-birth of watchmaking in 1991! #watches #history #ZenithWatches #ElPrimero #watchmaking #horology https://grail-watch.com/2023/07/22/how-charles-vermot-saved-the-zenith-el-primero-in-his-own-words/
How Charles Vermot Saved the Zénith El Primero - In His Own Words - Grail Watch

In an industry as full of folklore and puffery as watchmaking, it is refreshing to uncover first-hand knowledge. As I was researching the history of Zénith, Universal, and the Martel watch factory I stumbled on a real gold mine: A 1991 interview with Charles Vermot, the watchmaker who saved the legendary El Primero watch movement from the scrap heap, and a look at how the watchmaking profession was viewed in 1991, as the industry was just recovering. I enjoyed the video enough to translate it and present it here for my readers.
