Zenith Vintage « NOS » Manual Winding Circa 1946

A rare and remarkably well-preserved example from the mid to late 1940s, this vintage Zenith stands out for its unique proportions and crisp condition. The 33.6mm stainless steel case features a classic round profile paired with bold, angular lugs, giving it a distinctive architectural presence on the wrist.

Its silver dial is beautifully balanced, with an uncommon 3-6-9 numeral layout, a small seconds register at 6, and blued leaf hands. The hour markers are applied gold pearls, adding warmth and subtle depth to the dial. The case remains unpolished and retains all its original lines and edges, which is a true rarity for a watch of this era.

Inside, the manual-wind Zenith Caliber 106 powers the piece with charm and reliability. It is sold with its original Zenith buckle and branded hang tag, thoughtful details that complete this already exceptional collector’s piece.
