I have for sale a beautiful vintage Zenith ref 01.1000.125 in NOS condition. It's like you are buying it new from the store! It's about 33-34mm in diameter and of course everything(except the strap) is original. Although it hasn't any name on the dial, I believe it's a Sporto because I have seen identical Zenith watches to this, with the Sporto designation. I don't know what movement it has, apart the fact that it's manual wind, because I don't have the necessary tool to open the caseback and I fear damaging it. It runs pretty fine but I don't think it has been ever opened😉

For this beautiful Zenith watch, I want only 700€ I accept any credible payment method(I prefer Paypal) and I can ship it anywhere.

Any chance you could provide a straight on photo of the dial?

How do you know that this watch is in “NOS” condition?

NOS means “New Old Stock”. That is, the watch has never been sold or worn, and is complete as it would have been sold by a retailer. This would include the inner and outer boxes, hang tags and instruction books.

BTW, this looks like it could be a redial, I’ve not seen a Sporto model without the designation on the dial.

If you change your original title and description, I will happily delete this post.

That's why I said it's in "NOS condition". If it had never been sold or worn, and was complete as it would have been sold by a retailer, then I simply would have written that it's NOS. It looks like it has never been worn, it's really in pristine condition, but nevertheless if you believe that my description is incorrect, then I will change it.

I am not 100% sure that this watch is a Sporto, I believe it is because I searched google with the ref number and it didn't show me the exact watch, only some pictures of a Zenith Sporto with pretty much the same case(at least it seemed this way in the photo). I have owned other Zenith watches before, and looking at this watch, I can't see anything that suggests to me that this could be a redial, everything looks correct to me. Of course you could say that as I am selling this watch, but I wouldn't.

Another straight up photo of the dial, I think that's better than the previous one. If you want more photos let me know

there are some ‘Sporto’ models without that on the dial but have it on the inside caseback.
