-
CASE: SEXY ALL-STEEL CUSHION CASE MEASURING 34mm ACROSS NOT INCLUDING CROWN. THE ORIGINAL FACTORY FINISHING IS LOOKING SHARP WITH ALL ORIGINAL BRUSHING AND CRISP EDGES FULLY INTACT AND UNPOLISHED. THIS ONE WEARS MORE LIKE A 36mm WITH THE WIDER 20mm LUG SPACING. THIS GUY IS ALSO ALL DIAL WHICH REALLY GIVES IT A LARGER IMPRESSION ON THE WRIST. THIS MUST HAVE BEEN A PRESENTATION PIECE GIVEN TO EMPLOYEES OF THE CHUPA CHUPS LOLLIPOP COMPANY AS NOTED BY THE INSCRIPTION ON THE CASEBACK.
-
DIAL: I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE NO-BULLSHIT AND ALL BUSINESS LOOK OF THIS TACTICAL DIAL GIVING IT AN ALMOST MILITARY FEEL. CHECK OUT THAT MATTE BLACK DIAL AND THOSE BOLD TRITIUM MARKERS WHICH LOOK KILLER WITH THE MATCHING LUME ON THOSE MIL-SPEC STYLE WHITE HANDS. THE ORANGE TIPPED SECONDS HAND IS A WICKED TOUCH. SO DAMN COOL
-
MOVEMENT: THIS DUDE RUNS ON A SWISS QUARTZ WHICH IS KEEPING EXCELLENT TIME AND RUNNING STRONG. SERVICE HISTORY IS UNKNOWN BUT THIS ONE HAS BEEN HOLDING IT DOWN WITHOUT MISSING A BEAT.
- WATCH IS MOUNTED ON A PERIOD APPROPRIATE ALL STEEL SLIDE LOCK OYSTER STYLE BRACELET WHICH LOOKS LIKE IT WAS SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR THIS PIECE. THIS IS A FANTASTIC ENTRY POINT INTO VINTAGE ZENITH THAT WON’T BREAK THE BANK. YOU GET THE WORRY FREE CONVENIENCE OF QUARTZ WITH SOME STEALTHY STYLING AND THE BRAGGING RIGHTS OF OWNING ONE OF THE MOST ESTEEMED SWISS BRANDS. AND…..JUST LOOK AT THIS THING; IT TOTALLY SLAYS.
