FS: Zenith A386 El Primero

Hi All,

I have a small collection of Zenith watches and due to unforeseen circumstances they are now for sale.

Firstly, I have this Zenith A386 in very clean condition.

I bought this watch several years ago from a major Zenith collector, it has been kept in a safe and worn very rarely since. To be honest, I've been a little concerned about damaging it.

It runs great, keeps excellent time with a decent power reserve, all chronograph and date functions operate correctly.

The case is exceptionally clean, tidy and virtually unmarked. The original dial is also in excellent condition.

The crown, hands and rehaut tachy are service replacements done just prior to my purchase.

The watch comes on an excellent 'ladder' bracelet with full divers extension. The bracelet has very little wear and the links are tight with virtually no 'sloppiness'. It feels pretty unused.

I'd be interested in offers around UK £6000.
