At Baselworld 2012 KeepTheTime had the pleasure of chatting with our friend Konstantin Chaykin in the AHCI booth. He showed off his new “Mystery” watch, featuring a completely transparent view from the top crystal to the bottom (he’s holding it in the photo above). Additionally, we had a chance to play with the new 18K gold version of his novel moonphase watch known as the Lunokhod Prime. Video coming soon… enjoy the pics for now!

Evolution of a Zenith Pilot Watch
Zenith Pilot Watch worn by Louis Bleriot in 1910
The Zenith booth at Baselworld had an entire wall of early Zenith models going from the oldest 1910 pilot watch shown above, to their pilot watch called the Doublematic with the El Primero 4046. This watch has it all, including big date, GMT hand, and an alarm! It’s interesting to see the evolution of the Zenith pilot and how it has become what it is today. One can only image what it will be like tomorrow.
