The below are a number of different spins on the original Zenith A386, two unique pieces, and two limited edition runs. FWIW, I’m not a fan of producing so many iterations.

Zenith Chronomaster El Primero 38mm Final Edition
Yet another…this one amusingly called the “Final Edition”. Well, because apparently this was the last time the Chronomaster would be offered in this case. Limited to 38 pieces, these were sold exclusively through the Zenith retailer Timeless Luxury Watches (now Watches of Switzerland). Different colors here and there, only ‘ZENITH’ and ‘El Primero’ on the dial, and no date.
Sale price: $8,800 on strap, $9,850 on bracelet
