Here's a great example of how Zenith is and always has been a top Swiss manufacturer of more than only the El Primero chronographs.
The watch we have here is exemplary of the quality of this manufacturer. From the yellow gold case to the silver dial and the slim in-house manual wound movement, this dress watch is truly stunning. The finishing of the dial is spectacular with case-matching applied roman and pyramid hour markers.
