Zenith Mondia NOS - Tank - No reserve price - Men - 1970-1979

Fascinating and refined Mondia wristwatch with a tonneau-shaped case, a model of extraordinary elegance that fully embodies Mondia's prestige, the historic Swiss brand owned by Zenith and synonymous with absolute manufacturing quality. This vintage line condenses in a pure, minimalist design the details of the strictest classical tradition, positioning itself as a classy choice for the most demanding collectors. This specific specimen draws attention with a wonderful parchment-colored dial enriched by black Roman numeral hour markers and a refined inner railway minute track that mirrors the contours of the case. The baton hands move with elegance on the dial, which bears the signature Swiss Made at 6 o'clock. The case stands out for a sumptuous heavy yellow gold plating of substantial thickness (40 microns), stamped on the profile (Plaque G 40), giving a warm and magnetic sheen. The knurled crown is embellished with a refined dark blue cabochon set in, a classy detail that elevates its aesthetics.

The watch presents itself in absolutely exceptional cosmetic and mechanical condition; being an authentic stock clearance (NOS - New Old Stock), the watch has never been worn, as evidenced by the original protective sticker on the case back (GES 8494 / 6220400512). The manual-wind ETA 2512-1 mechanical movement – a prestigious caliber famous for being the same one mounted by Cartier in its historic Tank models of the era – runs perfectly and keeps accurate time. To increase the lot’s collecting value is its original era tag that reads Mondia is a Zenith brand.
