This is a beautiful 1950's Zenith "Chronometer" ss screw back model with the famous C.135. It is equipped with the chronometer caliber Cal.135, which is known as the highest peak of the hand-wound type. The fine silver dial with a combination of wedge indexes and dolphin hands, and the screw back water resistant case with gently curved lugs that are comfortable for the wearer's arm, is a precious gem that attracts the unique taste of this era, different from the products equipped with Cal.135 in later years. The preservation state is also wonderful, and the silver dial which left beautiful luster and the screw back waterproof case which left the original shape also attracts a wonderful aspect. The water resistant model with a high performance movement is recommended as a vintage watch for daily use.
