Re: Zeno catalogue online
Great to see them here too. I sometimes surf their online catalogue.
The 3 Carré designs look great - except for the stinking plane.
The Diver Look Carré I bought years ago and sold to a friend (why Zeno calls it Zeno Army and also Diver Look Carré, I can not fathom). He still wears it and loves it and in my mind too, the design still holds up. A great design with the NABO hands, plus it has a anchor - instead of the stinking plane.
I like the Stairs and Race models too - except for the stinking plane.
I would buy any of the above mentioned watches in a heartbeat, were it not for the stinking plane.
Now if anybody has got the impression that I do not like the stinking cargo plane, they are absolutely right. Why they stick it on there, I do not know. A plane contradicts the design of many of the Zeno models, some of which are retro design and where it makes even less sense to put a modern plane on the dial. Some might say that I am nitpicking, but I just can not look beyond the plane, sorry. The watches are great value for money and I want one or more, but just will not own a watch with that abomination on the dial.
I have owned the Army Diver (!) too, but sold it off as I got hit by the big watch curse and it is puny.
I craved the Hercules until I saw it in the flesh. The only Zeno that I have handled among many and been really disappointed about.
Zeno, can we please have a seperate model range for people with a pathological hate of big fat cargo planes on the dial!
Rant over - thanks for your patience. :oops:

Re: Zeno catalogue online
:D Great pics. THanks.
I have a problem though: The ones I like most often has the plane on them. I like the top one exept for the plane. The rest I like the design of, but unfortunately they are too small for my taste, as I have been struck by the big watch curse as previously mentioned. I wear a GP GGYC and like big watches; PAM, Anonimo, Glycine Lagunare etc.
So I am caught between a rock and a hard place; either the Zeno watches has a plane on then or they are way too small for me, like the ones you show. Dont get me wrong; I like Zeno watches if it should have escaped anyones attention (except for the stinking plane).
Now the bottom one, I really like. There might be a Zeno Omega Dynamic homage in the future for me. Only thing holding med back, is the fact that I would smash the protruding pushers into something in no time flat and bend them beyond repair. That is why i mostly stay away from chrono-type watches. Besides i have no use for the Chrono functions and think that the pushers and chrono dials most often crowd the watch.

The Zeno catalogue link is not 404. Zeno does not publish a price list, like most manufacturers they have different price lists for different countries.

Re: Zeno catalogue online
That's better than the old PDF catalogue. Still has an impressive number of different models, I see. :)
