That is one beautiful watch. It's got a major drool factor going for it. I'm slobbering over it right now.

Your watch is extra special due to the additional complications.
I'm an admirer of the classic Zenith.

What a cracking looking watch. Is it still in current production? What metal is made from?

I have an order in for the exact watch, with the bracelet as opposed to strap. The dealer is having some difficulty procuring, but assures me he can "get 'er done !" Evidently the Moonphase with bracelet is being discontinued, but the strap version is still available. I suppose one could swap out the strap for a bracelet, but the bracelet alone is quite pricey - on the order of $1500 or so.
El Primero movement rocks !
