This is a beautifully preserved chronograph from the 1960s, featuring the Zenith Cal. 146H movement and crafted from rare 18k yellow gold. Measuring 37mm, this watch is water-resistant—an exceptional feature for a 1960s Zenith, as most waterproof cases from that era were made of steel, while gold cases were typically non-waterproof. This rare piece boasts a solid 18k gold screw-back waterproof case, offering a substantial feel.
The oversized 37mm case exudes a luxurious presence, complemented by a refined silver tachymeter dial with applied indices and baton hands, creating an elegant and sophisticated look. The overall preservation is remarkable, with the watch accompanied by an original crocodile leather strap and an 18k yellow gold buckle, both in excellent condition.
Powered by the Cal. 146H, based on a Universal Genève design, this watch not only stands out for its aesthetic appeal but also as a high-performance chronograph with water resistance. A highly recommended collector’s piece!
