Zenith Disco Volante
Ares501 - Mr Green
Dear friends
here's another friend from funky 70ies
The cool Zenith ref 01 - 1190 - 290
rightfully named by Italian collectors Disco volante - The flying saucer.
The crown is "integral part" of the case
Buckle to have it complete
even strap
Back plain and simple...actually begs for engraving...
Behind is 2562PC movement beating at 28 800 A/h
and now....drum roll....the profile that shows why Disco volante is rightful nickname...no lugs baby
Cool markers and star on the dial...I like that so much!
Navy blue dial...like that as well!
Date at Zenith position
Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away
If you can use some exotic booze
There's a bar in far Bombay
Come on and fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away
F.Sinatra
Cheers
D
P.S: After exhausting review I deserve appropriate cold one

A lot of superb details, on this watch. At the exception of one ... The bloody date.

Well...yes and no...dial would be much more sober without...but... when you deal with simple vintage pieces from Zenith you know that in majority of cases you'll end up with date on so called Zenith position...in the end is cool trademark Cheers D

This case shape is a stunner. I’m sure it will fly you to the moon my friend 😉 Best wishes Alkiro
