I think the new Spirit Zulu 1925 looks great, though I think the 39mm would be a bit small for me so I wish they offered it in the 42mm. Interesting that they're only $1050 more than the all-steel, whereas the existing "gold cap" Zulus are $1500 more, since at least visually I think these look "more gold" (though I doubt either has anywhere near enough to justify the price hike).
You'd usually think of a special edition like this not changing anything except swapping out the bezel, for cost effectiveness reasons, so it's notable that it gets the open caseback that I've always thought was conspicuously missing from the standard Zulus. The rotor design is also very neat and appropriate: a world map with the prime meridian marked off. I'd love to see these features make into the regular model.
