Zenith Pilot Type 20, 40 mm
Hi,
Not long ago I had the pleasure to see the Zenith Type 20, 40 mm in the metal!
Must say I was very positively surprised by this watch.
For me the 48 mm is too big. It sits on top of my wrist instead of on my wrist…
The 40 mm case 11.80 mm thick) sits very nice on the wrist.
The retro design looks great! The big onion crown is super cool!
Inside is the Elite caliber 681, automatic movement. But you can’t see it, Zenith had the good taste and cover it with a solid case back with the Zenith shield engraved.
And as I said – on the wrist it sits perfect!
A winner in my book!
Best

Belongs to larger cases... But I find this one wearable! :) Best Blomman

Superb Blomman, I find increasing attraction in the Pilot watches...
even if the one where Zenith committed the cardinal sin of equipping it with a Sellita movement, the Type 20 "Extra Special" (see report here !): Yes, the case-back: Time to the final and decisive test: wrist time - and here the 'Extra Special' is an extr...
Yes, but I am looking after a black dialed double signature....
Favre Leuba Zenith... Tough to find. Best, Nicolas
