This is my Zenith Surf watch. This too was bought at an auction in amongst a lot of other watches and jewelry.
It is from 1970's and has a 2562C calibre movement. I read that they produced their own movements and even supplied Rolex for one of their watches.

Very nice, later watches used an ETA movement so that’s the real deal

I've bought today a 35mm Tissot Prx, the silver face one, from Ebay for £175.00. (These are £320 new) It looks really nice I cant wait for it to come. I've also got a bid on a Baltany Dirty dozen 39mm Field watch(quartz). The Chinese are knocking out some really nice cheap watches at the moment.

Not a sexy watch, but one bought for me by my wife nearly 30 years ago. The battery had burst inside and it's lain in a drawer for years. Now got a new movement.

Mrs SD's very grubby (ie disgusting) Brietling Lady Wings before being sent off for a clean, repolish and service.

Always comes back looking mint again.

Purchased as a big pressy new and now 22 years old and never misses a beat. Not molly-coddled at all but she loves it.

Would love to see a pic of post-service. They do an amazing job. I like watching YouTube channels where they restore watches.

Ps someone mentioned Rolex using a Zenith movement. Iirc, I think it was a Zenith movement inside a Rolex Daytona but that was decades ago, probably 1960s or something.

Not specifically, but on the ukwatchforum the CW watches seem to be highly regarded.

I handled a few CWs, including SL39. Quite nice and I wouldn't hesitate to buy one. They have sales on every so often. It's worth subscribing to their newsletter.

Originally from WN. I paid a lot less, for one hardly worn, not a mark on it, with box and tickets and guarantee.

Thank You I've just done that. This is the one I like https://www.christopherward.com/watches/c63-sealander-automatic/C63-39ADA3-S00W1-VC.html
I will have to admit defeat with ss bracelets as I just cant wear them without getting a rash on my wrist.

I like that. I expect it’ll be an excellent watch.
