Don't know much about Feel Good Watches, so you would obviously have to check that out. You also need to check the age of the watch - could be several years old (I think that these have been around for about 8 years or so). To answer your question though, yes you are missing something. Caliber 4009 is not perpetual. |

Roff, your statement makes sense in that an annual calendar would go for those prices, but all the sources I found say it is a perpetual calendar http://staging.vialuxe.com/Zenith-Chron ... Watch/9353 Also, I had not intended to get it from FeelGoodWatches, my AD offered me those prices for BNIB models. |

If you are going to get a Zenith, get Chronomaster XXT Open Grande Date. Sexy ass watch. ![]() ![]() |

Not a big fan of the XXT open watches, too out there for me. The Zenith Grande XT is much better looking in my opinion. The only Open Zenith I like is the Defy Classic Open 46MM. Unique, but not freakishly so. |

99.9% sure that it's a full calendar movement, although Google's not much help. Make sure that you try it at an AD because I am fairly convinced that it's non perpetual. Oh and you're wrong about the Chronomaster XXT Open ![]() ![]() |
