Up for your consideration is a 1990 Zenith El Primero De Luca. The De Luca is already a pretty rare watch but the panda dial version is even rarer. This specific iteration is speculated to have produced only 680 pieces between 1990-92. I personally prefer this model because it has Mercedes hands and the non screw down pushers.
What makes this watch so special is it’s condition and it beautiful patina. Unfortunately the majority of De Lucas being sold are very worn with chewed up bezels, worn out case backs and/or are brutally over polished. This is not the case with this watch. Please refer to photos to see just how nice it is. Also note how crisp the logo is on the case back and defined the coin edge is on the bezel.
You can also buy this watch in confidence knowing that you will not have to worry about servicing it for quite some time. If you have ever serviced an El Primero you know the service is not cheap especially when it is done properly. The El Primero movement received a full service overall back in March 2020. Service documents will be provided to new owner.
Watch comes with box, original bracelet, like new Barton rally strap and authentic Zenith clasp that I bought in case I bought a custom strap.
Normally I love trades but I am consolidating my collection for something other than watches right now so looking for a cash only sale.
For Sale $7,000 shipped anywhere in Canada.
This is an uber cool watch that is only rising in desirability/price and oozes vintage charm for a fraction of similar watches that it is regularly compared to.
Please feel free to pm if you have any questions or need additional photos.
