Zenith Sporto 141.E.145, Cal. 2562C

1972 Zenith Dress Watch with C-Shape Stainless-Steel Case & White Dial

A crisp white dial anchors this historic wristwatch, framed by the period-correct C-shape stainless-steel case that wears elegantly at 36 mm. Applied baton hour markers and a clean handset deliver superb legibility without numerals, while the date window tucked between four and five adds functional subtlety. The flat bezel and sharply defined lugs give the piece a purposeful, mid-century silhouette that sits comfortably on the wrist and complements both tailored and casual wear. The overall presentation highlights vintage Swiss watchmaking restraint—balanced proportions, disciplined finishing, and enduring everyday usability.
