Icon20 FS: Zenith El Primero Striking 10th 03.2041.4052/69.C496 (Limited Edition)

Hello Everyone,

I am selling a Zenith El Primero Striking 10th, limited edition of 1969 pieces in wonderful condition. A definite 9.5 out of 10.

As you'll see in the following review, this lovely chronometer is special, as the chronograph hand makes 1 turn around the watch in 10 seconds:

I've just bought a new house and thus, need to sell some things to afford some new things.

I've only tried on this watch, never worn outside the house and it was purchased from another valuable member of TRF about 2 months ago. It's just not getting enough wear time.

Watch Specs:

Polished stainless steel case.

Flat silver dial with contrasting outer black seconds indicator rim.

3 color sub-dials with fine circular guilloche texture.

Faceted polished steel hands & applied indexes with luminous tips.

The Famous El Primero Chronograph stop/watch:

Large red central 1/10th of seconds counter hand (with the Zenith star logo as a counterweight). This hand makes a single full revolution every 10 seconds.

60 seconds sub-dial counter located at the 3 o'clock position - blue colored sub-dial.

60 minute sub-dial counter located at the 6 o'clock position - black colored sub-dial.

Running seconds sub-dial located at the 9 o'clock position - slate grey colored sub-dial.

Date display window located at the 6 o'clock position.

Zenith El Primero Caliber 4052 B, beats at 36,600 vph, 31 Jewels, 326 components & an approximate power reserve of 50 hours.

This is a complete set and includes two extra bands, one with red sticking and one with blue stitching. This in addition to the original alligator leather one.

There is a year left on the warranty.

Asking $6,700 shipped and willing to take reasonable offers.
