I can see spending upwards of $30k for a watch but $82,000 for a titanium watch? Am I missing something?

Well the list price is 145,000 which is even more ludicrous. Some people would pay it though if they had the money. I don't think I would by this model, I don't think I would pay 100,000 for any blue watch.

I think something got lost in the translation from a good idea. :)

Zenith Defy range was always optimistically priced, it's one of the reasons why Zenith ended up buying so many of them back from dealers, but.....

It's a tourbillon from a historic brand, it's never going to be cheap.

Not sure if I'd want to pay $82 for it.
But I'm just a philistine, so what would I know!

Very absurd when you can get a Zenith Tourbillon in a classic style for about $55k retail.

Honestly I have seen dog crap that looked better than that. 82k? Are you kidding me???

I am all for people spending money on watches but this is just a joke. I am glad that zenith went through an overhaul and canned this line.

Run from thewatchery and fast! Horrible experience with a "new" watch.
