The watch features a striking original brown fumé dial with applied striped baton markers, which is one of the most attractive period executions for this model family. The watch's caliber, 2562PC, is a high beat 23 jewel automatic movement from the MZM period, notable for its 28,800 vibrations per hour, marking it as a later specification within the Defy line. This piece retains essential model-defining characteristics, including the signed crown, Defy star caseback motif, and a patent stamped inner back, complemented by a Zenith signed buckle. While the calf leather strap is a later addition, the watch itself remains an authentic representation of Zenith's early 1970s Defy vocabulary.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"specifications\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand and Model: Zenith Defy Automatic 28800\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReference: 01 0901 290\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCase Material: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCase Size: 37 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLug-to-Lug: 44 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThickness: 14 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDial: Original brown fumé with applied striped baton markers, luminous hands, and date between 4 and 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrystal: Mineral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrown: Signed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrap: Calf leather with Zenith signed buckle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaliber: 2562PC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJewels: 23\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMovement Type: Automatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSplash Water Resistant (handwashing ok, not showering)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eService Date: 11-03-2026\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e📦 What’s Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBox\/Case:\u003c\/strong\u003e Secure black travel watch case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDocuments:\u003c\/strong\u003e Invoice and our service certificate worth €369 — included free of charge\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e🚚 Shipping, Returns\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInsured worldwide shipping. 14-day inspection (unused, seals intact).
