Hello 🙌🏻 I covered the Zenith El Primero in my first video -> th-cam.com/video/lpaALwPUmyI/w-d-xo.html about this topic. I totally agree, this one has to be on the list 😬
It's funny how You guys are talking about the EL Primero, I currently own a rolex that has that movement with the seconds at 9. Favorite go to watch.👍👍
Completely agree. Went to see it at the Breitling boutique in Madison Ave NYC. It’s stunning in the flesh. Shane the Chronomat gets so little spot light from the watch community.
People often overlook one of the under appreciated reasons that Rolex are so popular- size. Rolex have managed to maintain relatively smaller/reasonable sizing with nicely tapered bracelets which makes their watches wear really well every day. Looking at the height, lug to lug, case diameter and non-tapered bracelets of most of the other watches out there and you see why very few brands challenge Rolex in reality. Even if they do provide “better” watches on paper. Ps I forgot to say, thank you for the video (I have “liked” it) and merry Christmas!
@@noodosoop you must have a pretty big ego yourself to be making muggy/snidey comments on Christmas Eve- you clearly think you’re so funny people need to hear your silly point of view. Actually you’re just a knob.
Too bad they’re starting to think they’re superior with pricing too. A JLC Memovox Polaris is not worth 12k. 9500, perhaps. You’ll take a bath if you ever have to sell.
@@Judah.Rosenthal its more than worth it. So a inferior Rolex is worth it? The JLC is the better watch. Just buy pre-owned and you get a bargain. A Rolex is a mass produced piece off a line. A JLC is hand made. Big difference. Rolex isn't worth the price. The quality for what you pay just isn't there.
@@chelious1973 JLC isn’t hand made. Maybe *some* hand finishing but it would be too much to say it’s anything but machine made. I think as an engineering piece, Rolex is superior. JLC movements, though they’re changing, are inferior. In magnetic resistance, in power reserve and even in sizing as they’ve increased case size but not the movement. The servicing is also a factor. Rolex is by no means cheap but a JLC ultra thin needs more attention, more care and more $ when the time comes. I love JLC and had the first Tribute Reverso for years, the Deep Sea Memovox, etc. But it’s the design, history and gravitas I prefer. Not the engineering prowess.
The JLC Polaris chrono is one of my all time favorite designs. Certainly my favorite $10,000 ish chronograph. It is a very good deal for what you are getting, and the dial is just to die for.
A well made and fun video to watch as usual Jenni!! I would go with the JLC because of its 8 year warranty and the pedigree associated with JLC. It’s a company that really has no weaknesses. Every watchmaker I’ve talked to about the Breitling B01 eyes it with suspicion because of all of the lemons that have emerged since the 2009 launch of that movement.
Double S M somehow, you found it clever to to explain the obvious joke. You know, just in case it was over anyone’s head. You’re just on another level when it comes to comedy, sir.
Very subtle watch.. Only 46 mm thin (with normal watches it's lug to lug) and when matched with the NATO strap it comfortably slides over your sleeve from your wrist to shoulders. OK, Ciao!
When I think of chronograph watches oddly Rolex isn’t the name that springs to mind, Zenith pops up first something special about every chrono they make.. oh followed by the legend that is speedmaster
@@JamesAlexander14 he was cheap talking out his ass and you’re agreeing with him lol i never liked bullshitters.... we both know the Camry will outlast the corvette... but i want the corvette not the Camry..

I bought ROLEX several years ago since that time i faced many problems with the watch. It isn't accurate. Each day i need to adjust it. Its really given me a headach. Thank you
That Breitling is fantastic! The JLC is great also. I would love either of them over the Daytona. Great review as always, I am envious of you getting to handle these terrific timepieces.
I have to admit that I am a bit of a Breitling fan boy, mostly from experience of ownership over the years. I love the Navitimer Cosmonaut and the Avenger 24 (my current daily driver) as well as a variety of Chronomats. I have never seen Rolex as value proposition, my experience with the brand was not a positive one.
To me the Omega and Breitling win by virtue of a date function. I love the legibility and look of the JLC. All have top-notch movements. I’d likely take the Breitling out of the four options (date is a must for me...and the reason I don’t own a Daytona).
I have both a Zenith El Primero “open” and a Breitling Chrono Evolution, both of which are fantastic watches but for some very strange reason I will still add a Rolex Daytona to my collection when the prices come down a tad. Another great video by the way. 👍🏻
Wow the Polaris! JENNY! top knocking my top watches off my "want" list :) I love that one! Incredible looks, technically fantastic and so thin! Please Santa pleeeease! Happy Christmas.
I'd opt for a Zenith El Primero over a Daytona any day. I do love the Polaris and it is one of my Grails but I want the non-chrono version. Loved the vid, as always!
@Thrustin Von Helmut The video title states clearly that it is about other watches than Rolex, so no clickbait for anyone looking for Rolex. What if the pathetic were you?.
@@japd7897 Yes it fucking is. If it is not about rolex, why mention rolex at all? This video might as well be called: This video is not about hammers, but about good chronographs.
Also the Breguet Type XX, Exact proportions of the Daytona, with flyback and rotating bezel, from one of the oldest and most important Swiss watch houses
The Jaeger-LeCoultre is my favorite. Then the Omega, then the Breitling. They're all great, but someone has to come in second and third. I think that the Polaris would be a more practical choice than my dream watch (a Reverso!), practical choice being a relative term. Really nice video, Jenni! Froliche Weihnachten!
People actually don't give Omega enough credit some times. They were the first ones to create a tourbillon wrist watch caliber, before Patek or AP or Vacheron or Role....oh wait. :P
The more classical choices would be: Zenith El Primero, Breitling Navitimer and Omega Speedmaster. Perhaps more boring, but each still iconic and beloved.
@@MrZZooh You know nothing about languages then. Yiddish was based HEAVILY on german, it was german in its core to be honest, that’s why it sounded „similar” to german. Hebrew has nothing to do here. And what She says sounds german, nothing else but german. Full stop.
Love the video Jenni! I just wish you didn’t show that Breitling for Bentley green Chronomat! Wish you showed the blue or the panda dial! Some of us would like to keep that green one away from the hype. It’s my grail watch!!!
I would say that all watches are on the same level...doesn't matter if it's Rolex, Breitling, Omega EXCEPT Jaeger LeCoutre...this watches are on an other lever (also with the price)...but Rolex is of course always a solid choice...
Out of the 4 watches, without a dout JJ Lecoutre, the best movement in terms of quality, but price for money definitely Omega is the 🏆 winner, excellent price for such hight quality movement, very accurate and gorgeous finish. I have lost interest on Rolex watches since you have to pay very hight premium prices for watches that are made in tremendous amounts.... great review!!!!
I owned a Rolex submariner for about 25 years. From day one it was always about 2-3 minutes fast. My wife purchased a women’s Rolex at the same time. Her’s was always 5-6 minutes slow. The Rolex requires yearly maintenance. That got expensive. A year ago I purchased a Omega Seamaster Professional chrono. Without a doubt it is a superior watch. It keeps perfect time and I like the size far better than the Rolex. The Omega also does not required early maintenance. Overall a better watch at a far better price point.
Interesting, I've been collecting watches for 20 years and have watches from around 15 premium brands in my collection but the three Rolex are by far the most accurate.
Waoooo beatiful pieces... but the JLC is an other level... I love it... and congrats for this video Jenni.. I love your voice¡¡ great video.. I wish you merry christmas and happy nes year¡¡ stay safety¡
Resale over rated! There are some many models on the gray market…the resale only as good as finding a buyer who’s willing to pay. I can see if you have a special watch that was limited. But I doubt if you will be able to sale a submariner with so many out there without losing money.
A few months ago you said JLC has no identity except for the reserso. JLC the watchmakers watch! The Master control line, this piece and their other collections. All in house movements.
About the Zenith, I'll just say this: my servant gave me her Zenith a few years before passing away, because she knew I would take good care of it. Her former employer had offered her the watch in the mid sixties, allegedly because she saved his life when he had a stroke. (well, she also was a young and attractive girl, back then...) The watch ran on her wrist non stop for almost forty years. She had no other. First thing I did was to hand it to my watchmaker, so he could inspect and repair it as necessary. He opened the case back, and a couple of minutes later I asked him what he thought. "The watch is as new. No wear, no issues. Just needs to be cleaned and nothing else" After almost forty years of continuous use and no maintenance whatsoever!
Excellent Jenni, refreshing; concise and superb analysis. Your Channel has been a delight during the year. Thank you for sharing your insights. Have a wonderful Christmas time and a peaceful and healthy New Year 👍
Thanks Jenni; great to pick up these reviews early in the New Year. Keep up the wonderful work and excellent Content 👍 Live the little outtake at the end with you practicing your JLC pronunciation 😂 JLC would be my favourite; sadly still out of my price range.... here’s to saving up! When are you going to get them to “sponsor” a prize draw ?
Honestly I just plain prefer the JLC over them all including the Rolex. I own an Explorer and am not a Rolex is overrated person but JLC's offering in this segment speaks to me.
Great review, with lots of terrific and valuable information. 3 great watches, 3 difficult choices. I have an Omega, but not the chronograph model. It is everything you say it is. You have given watch lovers a great deal to think about and choose from. I love listening to you explain in detail the qualities of each watch. You always hit the best and most important features and points. Thanks again.

Can you do a review on the Breitling navitimer chronograph 41 ?
I just bought an El Primero. It's beautiful - I love it!
JLC is definitely a better choice in quality vs Rolex Daytona. Great video highlighting the three options.
I think the Breitling chronomat is a brilliant chronograph
It’s honestly a shame that she brought it up! It was kind of a sleeper watch😂🤦♂️
Best looking chrono made in years! The British green sunburst dial is a killer :)
Very underappreciated IMO, deserves to be on more wrists.

How can you forget Zenith El Primero. Its movement was once used in rolex daytona
Yep...the Zenith EP is on my short list.
Just got one on steel bracelet, absolutely love it
she covered zenith before, so probably wanted to go with different options.
I think the point is to offer other options, and when you’re talking about Daytona killers, the El Primero isn’t really forgotten.

JLC would be my favourite; sadly still out of my price range.... here’s to saving up! When are you going to get them to “sponsor” a prize draw ?
Honestly I just plain prefer the JLC over them all including the Rolex. I own an Explorer and am not a Rolex is overrated person but JLC's offering in this segment speaks to me.
Thank you so much for your videos. Very accurate, very impressive, and very professional.
Great review, with lots of terrific and valuable information. 3 great watches, 3 difficult choices. I have an Omega, but not the chronograph model. It is everything you say it is. You have given watch lovers a great deal to think about and choose from. I love listening to you explain in detail the qualities of each watch. You always hit the best and most important features and points. Thanks again.
