FULL DESCRIPTION

From the famous Swiss brand Zenith we share with you this wonderful sports Flyback Chronograph.
This was bought new back in 2014 and has since been worn only occasionally by just one owner.
It comes complete with an attractive wooden box, instructions, guarantee etc.
As with all of our watches it is presented in pristine condition and is provided with a 12 month mechanical warranty for your peace of mind.
The automatic movement is the legendary El Primero best known as the same featured in the Rolex Daytona Cosmograph. While this offers you excellent accuracy it also features a Flyback mechanism which allows you to easily record multiple events.
We particularly like the varied colours of the sub dials and combined with it’s black bezel makes this a very attractive sports watch.
Known as the “Striking Tenth” this model has received may awards. We share few words below courtesy of A blog to watch.
In at least one award last year the Zenith Striking 10th was voted best watch of 2010. The cool character was on many people’s minds as it was a highlight of a reinvented brand.
Functionally the Striking 10th is a foudroyante – but few people know that term. Basically it has a “flying” central hand which goes around the dial each second. It is used to measure time, in increments of 1/10th of a second. Unlike a standard chronograph you can measure time increments more precisely like this.
The Striking 10th uses the in-house made Zenith caliber 4057B which operates at 36,000 bph. It is an automatic with over 50 hours or power reserve and features a 1/10 of a second flyback column wheel chronograph, time, and date. It measures up to 60 minutes via the chronograph. Once again, you can see the movement through the sapphire caseback.
Measuring a bit larger than last year’s model, the Zenith El Primero Stratos Flyback Striking 10th watch sites in a polished steel Stratos case that is 45.5mm wide
For those wishing to take it swimming or diving it is waterproof to 100m
