    I know next to nothing about Zenith as a brand bar what I've seen on the forums... but I do like the look of this. I've been looking for a stainless steel dress watch, and I'm considering several vintage brands.

    Rip it to shreds for me. :thumbsup:

    Over-polished, and a redial.

    tip: look at the sellers other listings, for example, the Grana. He states that the dial is in "original condition". No such mention in the Zenith listing. He is being honest, in a sense, by omission.

    What @Tony C. said is right. The case back is like a mirror, lugs are no longer sharp and the dial is too clean for a 50 year old watch.

    Yeah I hear you. Canadian here, and between poor dollar exchange and import duty this hobby is getting expensive!
