I commiserate with you!
That would be a hard watch to lose. Do you by chance have the case number noted anywhere? I keep a database of these, and would be very happy to watch for it. It would be a satisfaction to find it again as it comes up for sale somewhere.
You can help towards solving another mystery as well. As you note, this watch has a service dial ("L Swiss Made L" at the bottom in place of "Swiss Made T"). We have never been able to clearly ascertain when these became available. Did you have the dial replaced? If so, did LeLocle do it or someone else? If no, approximately when did you acquire it with this dial in place? Have you any idea when it was replaced?
Thanks, and again, very sorry to learn it was stolen.

Sorry to hear that, my friend.
Maybe it is time ( if this is not too painful ) to hunt another one? It would perfectly go with your delicious " background ". ;) Best, Nicolas.
I can feel your pain ...
Because I'm also from your "club" (I was robbed at gun point in my house 3 years back). What I can tell you is what I did: I give up watches for a while and then return. More careful, more strict with my tastes but with all of the fun. Life always finds a...

Of all the models from my favorite period . . .
. . . of chronograph design, this one reigns supreme, alongside Omega's Flightmaster and the Longines Conquest. Very sorry to hear of its loss, and hope you'll be able to find another someday, although it would be tough to find one in the same pristine co...
re: missing
Sorry to hear about it being stolen. Have you decided on what you are going to get in place of it? The cool thing about Zenith is that the current line of watches are impressive! -MW

I will keep my eyes peeled for this case number and let you know through this site if ever this watch surfaces again. Thank you for the additional pictures as well. I find your original dial in very fine shape - I wonder that you troubled to replace it, a...
