but definitely no longer in production.

The De Luca was manufactured from 1988-1996 with total production at 6500 pieces.

This is the second (last) version with sapphire glass, screw down crown and pushers which was made 1994-1996. Only 2000 pieces were made of this version and out of that 2000 only 675 had the white dial with black sub-dials. Not the holy grail of Zeniths but still pretty rare.

I've looked for this exact piece in this conditon for years so of course I found it right after vowing "not purchase any more watches until late 2007".

Consider that the first broken new years resolution of 2007!!

Best,
Mike
