Zenith Chronomètre NA

1960s Zenith Chronometre Automatic

Why This Watch Matters The rose-gold case on this Zenith is strikingly rich with all its original glory. The Full Story Square dress wristwatches were a popular design choice for various Swiss manufacturers in the 1950s and 1960s. Ones made in precious metal were especially desirable in that era, but mostly seen in yellow gold. This Zenith Chronometre Automatic is a great example in a rare 18k-rose-gold case that is veering towards red gold with its deep color elegantly matching the colors of the dial and hands. Plus, the Zenith chronometer grade caliber 2522P automatic movement with a sweeping seconds inside makes this watch even more special.
