: Hi,

: Here is for sale a rare original Zenith s58 with a stardust silver
: dial and the "fab Suisse" marking. It is the version
: without the turning bezel and the automatic caliber 133.8
: bumper. According to this caliber which arrives 2 years later
: than the 120, this s58 should dates from 1960.
: The big thing about this s58, is the "fab Suisse"
: marking. I had few s58 and It's the first time of my life I see
: that marking on this reference (on dial and on case back). It
: was dedicated to the French market and required by French
: customs to inform customers that they were not buying a French
: made watch. Kind of a story, and a rare bird then!!
: The watch is in great condition. The dial has a beautiful stardust
: patina. Nothing chocking as the painting has just evolve like
: this because of time. The lum has a really nice egg colour with
: matching hands.
: The bumper caliber is in pristine condition without rust and is
: perfectly working.
: It has an unsigned crown, and It's original glass with few
: scratches but I have ordered a new one that i will add with it.
: The case is in really good condition as well and is almost NOS!
: Despite hardly visible wearing signs, It's sharp, thick and all
: details are there. The serial numbers with 7 digits are there
: (948xxxx) and untouched, as the s58 on the case back and the fab
: Suisse marking.
: The watch comes on a new gray NATO.

: Just to let you now, the one on C24 was mine and has been sold for
: 4k more than a month ago to a great collector. It could have
: been sold way before but my watchmaker kept it a long long
: time...
: As the specific marking seems the only one reported on the net
: right now and as watches having this specificity see their
: Prices increasing of 25%, I'm selling this beauty for 4500€
: starting price. I have many feedbacks, so feel free to contact
: me.
