Description

This vintage Zenith El Primero A386 was the first commercially released automatic chronograph in 1969. There are three different types of the A386. Mark I, II & III

This Mark I, the rarest and fewest made. An estimated 200ea. It still has all the original parts including the black leather strap, buckle and the box. The case has never been polished and no service parts have ever been installed too. Noticeable is the blue colored minute sub dial that lost some of its coloring over the 49 years. The movement was recently professionally serviced/overhauled and comes with a one year (1) warranty.

Chronomaster sport
Owned a 116520 Daytona with white dial in the past. Transitioned to other watch brands, now praises an unnamed watch for its accuracy and comfort. Recommends in lieu of a Daytona, especially on the secondary market.

No accessible steel case cal. 135s are planned :(
Romain Marietta explains that relaunching a calibre in a steel watch didn't make sense. They chose to position it in high horology. Exclusive context was preferred over large quantities.
