Zenith Autosport, circa 1970
The Zenith Autosport from circa 1970 presents a neatly proportioned 35 mm steel case with period-correct acrylic crystal and a signed crown, reflecting the decade’s focus on practical, wearable design. Inside beats the automatic caliber 2562PC with 23 jewels, a movement lineage that underlines Zenith’s mechanical expertise. Recently serviced (24-07-2026), the watch combines original dial and calf leather strap with dependable mechanics, making it a thoughtful choice for a collector who values well-built mid-century tool watches and a movement with solid horological provenance.
