Vintage Zenith Respirator "Kennedy" High-Beat 28800, Cal. 2562PC, All Original
A fantastic and highly collectible vintage Zenith Respirator, a model that perfectly captures the bold, architectural design of the early 1970s. The "Respirator" line was known for its patented water-resistant cases that were designed to seal even tighter as external pressure increased.
Key Features:
High-Beat Automatic Movement: This watch is powered by the excellent in-house Zenith Caliber 2562 PC, a high-frequency automatic movement beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour. This high beat rate allows for a smoother sweep of the seconds hand and contributes to greater timekeeping accuracy.
Striking "Racing Stripe" Dial: The original two-tone dial is in beautiful condition, featuring a silver sunburst base divided by a prominent blue "racing stripe." The dial proudly displays "28800" to denote its high-frequency movement.
Iconic "Kennedy" Case: The robust, rectangular stainless steel case is often nicknamed the "Kennedy" by collectors. Its sharp lines and integrated design are hallmarks of 70s style.
All-Original Condition: This Zenith Respirator appears to be in great, all-original condition. It retains its original signed Zenith crown and is fitted with its original integrated "lobster" style steel bracelet and signed Zenith clasp, which will fit a wrist up to 19cm.
For the enthusiast of 70s design, high-frequency movements, and the storied history of the Zenith brand, this Respirator is a truly exceptional find.
