Zenith Caliber 71 back from service

[DTMwatch]

My Zenith caliber 71, circa 1958, in 18 K rose gold (37mm) was serviced this past fall by Kelly Hunter of Art of the Watch. Kelly was great to work with. The caliber 71 is keeping excellent time, and the watch looks amazing to me. The pictures below don’t really capture the watch’s true beauty.

I had the gold plated buckle re-plated by RePLATEit; I’m very happy with their work too. Finally, I added a custom made Cordovan strap from Veblenist, which is buttery soft, and just an outstanding strap in my opinion. Overall, this Zenith is a real pleasure to wear, and I appreciate the services from Kelly Hunter, RePLATEit, and Veblenist.

That's a really nice result, certainly worth the care you've given it. Congratulations!

A few more photos. The dark green strap is a different look for me, but so far I’m pleased with how it compliments the rose gold watch.
