Depends on the model. Some it’s a classic variant like with the santos. Sometimes it just feels like you want to be fancy but couldn’t afford the full gold version so it kind of defeats its own purpose.

I’m never going to spend a lot of money for not the real thing. If I can’t afford a Royal Oak I’m not gonna still shell out a lot for a defy skyline.

Zenith is the el primero. Seems crazy to get a non-chronograph zenith.

This attitude is so strange to me.

1) Zenith is older than AP and DEFY is older design than anything from AP.

2) If you mean it's not chronograph, some people don't want that in a watch. DEFY's movement is simple and more importantly, extremely small giving it a low profile. The only watch with a lower profile is Santos

3) Only VC and Patek are on AP's level

The defy line covers a lot of ground. The specific ref you mentioned is a blatant copy of the Royal Oak. I’m not even saying it’s not a nice watch. I just wouldn’t feel good about spending thousands of dollars on it.

Zenith is a great brand with tons of history 100% of which is tied to the el primero movement. So if I’m going to shell out $5-10k on a zenith, it is definitely going to be a chronograph. These are just my opinions.
