FS: Rare Zenith rosegold oversize 156H calibre

Hi guys

I put for sale this amazing oversize Zenith, an incredible watch, very charming, because I need to reduce a bit my collection.

This watch is simply magnetic. It's pure class, in my opinion. Solid rosegold of about 38,5mm case, a brilliant (and not so common!) Zenith 156H - Martell based calibre, with hours-counter too. As you can see, this watch has more than a similarity with UG's chronos of the same time. In fact, we can say that they share the same soul.
Dial is in very good condition, with a lovely creamy patina, and just a couple of minor signs on it. Hands are 100% original.
Case conditions is very good, watch appears to be lightly polished, but nothing serious. Crown is not signed. At the beginning I thought it was replaced, but with time I noticed lots of similar watches (of the same years) with no signs on their crown. Actually UG watches from 40's don't have signed crowns. So I think that the crown could be the original one. Not sure, but it's anyway a minor thing, in my opinion.
Movement is in brilliant state, freshly serviced. Perfectly working, there's not much to say about that. It's wonderful.

Killer price for it is 2950€ net to me. Considering the quality of this watch, is a very low request. Watch and me are located in Italy, and I have multiple worldwide references to provide if needed, so you can buy in total confidence!

Thank you all, thank you CT

Best
