Sale price€480,00

Vintage Zenith WW2 Military Watch from 1941, men’s, manual wind Zenith caliber (unspecified), featuring bold Arabic numerals and a richly patinated dial — an authentic heritage timepiece of vintage Swiss watchmaking.

1941 Zenith Military Watch with Arabic Numerals and Patinated Dial

This historic wristwatch prioritises legibility and utility: large Arabic numerals, a precise minute track, and purposeful hands deliver immediate readability without ornament. The metal case wears compact yet confident at 35 mm with a 39 mm lug-to-lug span, balancing vintage presence and daily comfort. An 18 mm lug width invites thoughtful strap choices — leather for refined character or canvas to echo its martial origins. The dial’s attractive, even patina adds depth and narrative, the kind of honest ageing connoisseurs value in a collectible mechanical watch.

Inside is a manual wind movement consistent with period Zenith practice — a robust, serviceable architecture that reflects Swiss-made standards of precision timekeeping. Its steady amplitude and uncomplicated maintenance profile make it a practical vintage timepiece as well as an artefact of horological heritage. Fully serviced and ready to wear, this watch will provide reliable performance for years to come.
