Hi OF -

Up for sale is this beautiful Zenith from 1941. Case measures just shy of 37mm so 'oversized' for the time. Original blue-steeled hands and dial, which has aged to a nice, even cream colour. The chrome plated case is in good condition with some slight pitting under a loupe, and a stainless steel caseback. I believe it houses a Zenith calibre 106, which is working fine but I have no service history.
Case - chrome plated, measures 36.8mm
Lug width - 18mm
Dial - original and in good condition, with some tiny spotting visible with a loupe but consistent with age.
Crown - unsigned.
Caseback - stainless steel, the serial number on the inner caseback is no longer visible.
Movement - Zenith 106 movement number dates it to early 1941.

A lovely Zenith and reluctant to let it go but its not getting much wrist time - offered here for £500, postage within the UK £7.00 Royal Mail Special Delivery which includes insurance, elsewhere to be discussed. Pics below and thanks OF for the space and everyone for your consideration.

	Established:	1865

	Country of Origin:	Switzerland

Zenith SA is a Swiss luxury watchmaker. The company was started in 1865 by Georges Favre-Jacot at the age of 22, in Le Locle in the canton of Neuchâtel. Zenith was purchased by LVMH in November 1999, becoming one of several brands in their watch and jewellery division. Jean-Claude Biver became Interim CEO in 2017, replaced CEO Aldo Magada, who replaced Jean-Frédéric Dufour in 2014.

Zenith has a long reputation for the quality and precision of their watches. It is one of the Swiss watch manufacturers that still produce their own movements in-house.

The El Primero calibre, which was first released in 1969, and still produced today, was one of the first automatic chronograph movements and has a frequency of 36,000 alternations per hour (5 Hz). This high rate allows a resolution of 1⁄10 of a second and a potential for greater positional accuracy over the more common standard frequency of 28,800 alternations per hour (4 Hz). The El Primero was honoured with a 2012 release of the El Primero Stratos Flyback Striking 10th, limited to 1,969 pieces (in honour of the original 1969 release date), that housed the same 36,000 vph movement and a sub-dial measuring in tenths of a second to make a complete rotation every ten seconds.
