Before the El Primero, Zenith was most known for their chronometer time keepers. The Zentih Captain here, from the early 70s, was offered both in chronometer and non-chronometer spec. This one is obviously the former, featuring the Zenith Cal 2552 PC.

The 37mm tonneau case wears great. Kind of a little UFO on the wrist. Faceted indices are sharp and reflective. Beautiful dial font. AND the original NSA Zenith branded bracelet (one of the absolute best vintage bracelets anyone was making). I…

Welcome back to the early 2000s when Hublot made discreet watches, before Jean Claude Biver took the brand brash (and dropped the MDM).

Welcome back to the early 2000s when Hublot made discreet watches, before Jean Claude Biver took the brand brash (and dropped the MDM).

This is a 36mm diver with a 60 click bezel. The watch was serviced January 2025. It has a push down crown, but a stated 300m water resistance. I probably wouldn't take it scuba, but i feel good about swimming in it! The rubber strap will accommodate a wrist a little over 7in. These straps are cut to fit and expensive, so I did not shorten this one at all…

Pierre Cardin was one of the most influential fashion designers of the 1970s. While he was taking over the fashion world, he partnered with Jaeger Paris (Jaeger had already joined with LeCoultre, but Jaeger still had operations in France) to produce a number of watches in the Espace line. Here is one of the coolest ones. 32mm wide in two-piece construction with 20mm fixed lugs. Wears larger as a square, so think of it like more industrial Cartier Tank. This comes with the original strap and…

Offering a very cool early 60s IWC dress watch on its original factory bracelet made by the one and only Gay Freres. The case is 35mm. The dial is actually a pie pan design. Speaking of the dial, how amazing is the vintage IWC script logo! Original signed crown looking great as well. Inside beats the stellar Calibre 8531. There is factory finishing still visible on the watch. I believe it is unpolished. Killer find.

This thing wears great dressed up or in a t shirt. The straight lugs give a…
