Zenith Sporto Surf Sporto - Vintage Stainless Steel Manual Wind Men's Watch - Ref. 01 1494 360
For sale is a Swiss Made Zenith men's watch with reference number 01-1494-360, presumably dating back to the mid 1970s. It features an intriguingly shaped stainless steel case which measures 37mm in width, 39mm in height and just under 13mm in thickness: a fairly large watch for its time. The dial on this particular example is finished in a white or silver-ish tone with subtle vertically brushed texture. Lumed stick shaped hands indicate the time on polished steel indices. Inside the watch sits a gorgeous Zenith 2572 movement, a high quality calibre developed in-house by Zenith in Switzerland during the 1970s. The crown is not signed and therefore most likely not original, but a perfect fit. The watch comes on a brand new generic perforated black leather strap with generic stainless steel buckle, ready to wear.
The example sold here has been worn throughout its life, but is still in good overall condition considering its age. You will find signs of wear on the case, but no overly coarse damage. Most notable is the minor ding to the side of the case at the 8 O'clock position. The case is unpolished and therefore in original shape, with sharp edges and curves. The dial and hands have stood the test of time very well, with no notable deterioration to speak of. The domed plexiglass crystal is brand new. Functionally, the watch has received a full service prior to sale and is working perfectly. The movement was entirely disassembled, cleaned, lubricated and regulated.
Please study the pictures in this listing well: they show the watch in the condition that it is in, with no digital enhancements to make it look better than it is. We are sure that you like honesty, and so do we. The watch is sold as watch only: sadly no original box or paperwork are present with this piece.
Your newly acquired timepiece will be packaged with great care, and will be shipped out as fast as possible. We usually ship the same day your payment comes in, and provide full insurance as well as a tracking code for all of our packages. If you have any questions regarding the item or our services, please do not hesitate to reach out. We'll gladly assist as soon as we get the chance!
