A RARE find for any Zelos collector. This is the Vitesse automatic chronograph #26/100 Panda dial. I ordered this as soon as it dropped on the website in 2022. It is a gorgeous time piece. I did not wear it, didn’t even size it, all the original links remain in the bracelet. This is in its original condition as it arrived directly from the factory. Comes with box and metal warranty card.
So why is this watch special?
Here comes the spec sheet but the real deal is the La Joux Perret L100 column wheel chronograph movement. It’s an integrated chronograph making it much thinner than a traditional Sellita SW500 or ETA/Valjoux 7750 which are not only thicker but use a cam operated chronograph system. The L100 column wheel results in refined coordination and improved tactile feel of the chronograph functions. And to be included in this run of only 100 pieces world wide makes this a very special time piece indeed.
