Will be glad to read about your experience with this watch. Especially about its reliability and accuracy.

Thank you in advance.

Anybody ?

Had owned the blue dial one for about 2 years.but sold it last year. No complaints about reliability and accuracy. Don't expect anything less from an El Primero anyway. It is amazing to me that there are only 8 parts in the annual calendar mechanism invented by Ludwig Oeschlin. Reason why I sold it is I am too lazy to set the calendar since I don't wear the same watch for more than a few days. Can be a pain to set and worse if you exceed the date you are setting.

Thank you for your answer. As for setting it should not be a problem if I'll keep the watch on winder.

It will not be a problem if you intend to leave it on a winder. Do show us if you get it.

Sorry guys I thought this was some vintage EP variant I'd not heard of before, when you were asking about reliability etc I figured it'd have to be an old one

Uh, yeah…… not how it works.

Probably why you had to ask twice for opinions. You'll get it eventually. Or not.
