Zenith Pilot Type 20 Extra Special Bronze 29.2430.679/21.C753 - 2017
Zenith Pilot Type 20 Extra Special Bronze 29.2430.679/21.C753
Based around the Type 20 released in the early 2010's, Zenith took that winning formula of historic pilot-style watch and fashioned it from bronze, adding a further layer of beauty, practicality and warmth to this already very cool take on the formula.
The bronze case is 45mm in diameter, a reasonably svelte for it's size 14.25mm thick, with a 54mm lug-to-lug with svelte lugs that allow the strap to go straight down on the wrist increasing comfort and wearability. The case back is fashioned in titanium to reduce weight, and also ensure it is hypoallergenic, and features a very cool engraving in relief. Within this case lies a classic Pilot's matte black dial with oversized numerals consisting of solid luminova, and a railroad minute track. It's topped with heavily lumed gilt cathedral hands.
Powering it is the Zenith Elite calibre 679 automatic with a 55 hour power reserve, and hacking seconds. It's finished off with a rubber-lined calfskin strap with titanium tang Zenith buckle.
This piece was first sold in 2017 and presents in TZ 'Near Mint condition. The case shows patina as expected, but very little signs of wear. Certainly no nicks/dings etc, and no large scratches. Caseback is in fantastic condition. Please see images for full details.
The strap is excellent, and the buckle shows light desk dive marks.
All functions operating as they should, and keeping time at around +7 seconds a day face-up on a timegrapher.
Comes with outer box, inner box, warranty card (expired), card holder, instruction booklet, hang tag, and cleaning guide.
A super cool Pilot's watch that wears beautifully on the wrist, and amazing value to boot.
