Great review! It's certainly is a quality watch that is undervalued in today's market. If the Gerald Genta designs can become popular again, I see no reason Ebel can't.

Thanks. Yes, it's surprisingly nice. I thought 39mm would be way too small but it wasn't. Enjoying it quite a lot and wearing it right now. Cheers.

This was really cool. Stripping the Ebel 1911 El Primero.

I bet as soon as watch influencers start talking about Ebel it will become hot again just like vintage Piaget

Yeah. The prices have already increased since the review. These El Primero 1911's went for 1.5K - 1.9K. Now they're 2.5K to 4K.

Could be inflation too. But this watch definitely deserves more respect.
