Zenith UFO 1950s Yellow Gold Large Case 40mm
SOLD
The Inside Story
When an oversize watch gets hammered…
This a funky and rare manual wind Zenith watch that dates to the 1950s. The case is big, measuring 40mm and made in 18k yellow gold. The watch has very short, unimposing lugs that give the watch a clean circular aesthetic that you cannot help comparing to a classic 50’s sci-fi UFO ! The case is beautifully finished around the outer edge, with a deep lip that has a hammered effect on the gold. The original dial has large applied baton hour markers and non-lume hands. As is a signifier of the watch’s UFO credentials, the dial features an applied Zenith star logo. On the wrist its thinness is cool and the watch lies really large and flat. We love it…it’s out of this world! The manual-wind movement has been fully serviced by our watchmaker and the watch comes on a Bulang and Sons leather strap.

Our Service
Each vintage timepiece is individually selected and carefully inspected by our team of experts. After we buy a watch it is mechanically inspected and fully checked by our watchmaker. If necessary, the movement will be fully serviced and tested to ensure it is running to our exacting standards.
We will always describe the watch as fully as we can in our sales texts. Our zoomable images are of the highest possible quality and form an important part of each watch’s description. We will never hide or cover up any element of any watch we sell.
Key to our unparalleled service is Fedex Priority shipping, fully insured. Once you have received your watch, we encourage you to inspect it thoroughly. If you are not 100% satisfied, please let us know. We offer a 14 days return policy. Simply return the watch to get a full refund of the original purchase price.
Our Warranty
We offer a one-year warranty on the mechanical function of the watch, starting from the day of purchase. We do not guarantee the waterproof nature of any (vintage) watch, unless expressly made in writing. Therefore, our warranty will not cover any damage done to the case and/or movement by water or moisture entering the watch. Our warranty does not apply to accidental damage or mishandling of your watch and does not extend to the bracelet, case parts (including pushers, winding stem, crown and bezel), watch glass, dial and hands.
