    I've owned a Chronomaster Sport, black dial, for about a month and a half and I really love this watch. The bracelet sits in the box it was shipped from and I tend to swap out to various straps for daily wear, depending on what I'm doing that day. I swear, this watch started me on the road to a strap collection, straps from Delugs, Artem and some outfit called Watch Gecko! It sits next to an A386 as my favorite pieces. Everything about this watch just brings me joy. It seems almost daily, I discover some nuance I never noticed before that makes it even better.

    It is a remarkable watch, and remarkable achievement by Zenith. Both aesthetically and mechanically. I have a couple of friends who are currently on waitlist for the Daytona. Admittedly, they have nothing but good things to say about the Chronomaster Sport. Nevertheless, they steadfastly refuse to get it, and remain on the list for the Daytona. And, I suspect, will remain on the list for sometime. At 72 years of age, I sincerely hope I am still alive when they get it! :) There is only a single feature which prevents me from getting the Zenith (and, no, I am not getting the Daytona): the fact there is no protective steel ring around the ceramic bezel. I have never, ever been a fan of using ceramic on a watch, especially a sport watch. But I am also a klutz! And I am certain that I would strike the watch against a hard or sharp object, and that would be it for the bezel. Rant over. Otherwise, I love the Chronomaster Sport!

  • @bobby9741
    @bobby9741 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Great impartial review. I love this watch. Definitely this or the new Speedy will be my next purchase. Even if the Daytona was avaliable at list and didn't carry any premium over the Zenith used, I would still buy this. It's a nicer looking watch and the history of Zenith crono is great. Also it's not a Roex which makes it even cooler in my mind.

  • @scottc6946

    I had a chance to wear the white dial on wrist and it looks even better in person than on video. The size and details of it are perfect. I also tried on a Daytona, and my initial impression was it looks small.

    Great review, thank you. Interesting movement and dial, non screw down pushers, 10 second center hand timer,date... Add to that Zeniths perhaps smug copying of the Daytona's clasp and looks, like saying, "We gave you 55 years, this is how it's done!" Just love this watch.

    The biggest turnoff with this watch is the horrors of servicing watch associated with LVMH ASP.

    I’ve always wanted a Zenith and never been interested in a Daytona (even though I like it). How many Daytonas run at 36,000 vph? How many Daytonas have 1/10 th second timing?
    I’m not saying those things make it better. They are just points of difference that appeal to me.

    I don’t want to talk about nothing but Rolex, in a Zenith review, but this is so comparable to the Rolex. Rolex is such a cool watch and for me, Rolex is Rolex. This watch so reminds me of Rolex that I would say this is not just comparable to Rolex but it’s almost exactly like a Rolex. So let’s be clear: it’s all about Rolex.

    Get a Rolex Datejust 36mm for a classic dress watch, get a Zenith Chronomaster Sport for a sport watch and live a happy life... No need more! 💙🤍 (blue dial for Rolex Datejust, white dial for Zenith)

    No watch is the best watch. I like not having anything encumber my wrist. I don’t have to worry about a watch accidentally scraping across my car when I’m loading things in and out of my car. I also don’t have to worry about being mugged for my watch. I can tell time by looking at my phone or ask Siri/Alexa. Rather than spending $10K on something that you don’t really need, invest in high-growth stock or cryptos and retire early or work less.
