Zenith Men's TimeCommand Wrist Watch, Quartz Movement, Analog Time With LED Digital Display, Swiss-Made, Circa 1976 by Joe Haupt
Via Flickr:
In 1971, Zenith Radio Corporation acquired a majority interest in the Movado-Zenith-Mondia Holding Company of Switzerland. The Swiss Zenith watch company was founded in 1865. Prior to the acquisition, Zenith watches had won many prizes for their precision and quality in the Swiss watch industry. Movado was established in 1881, and the company was well-known in the United States in 1971 as a prestige line of fine watches. Founded in 1905, the Mondia company made a line of watches in the moderate priced field. Zenith Radio Corporation's foray into watchmaking was short-lived. In 1978, the company exited the field when they sold off their money-losing Swiss watchmaking subsidiary. It is interesting to note that watchmaker Charles Vermot is honored on the current Zenith SA watch company's website. In 1975, according to the Zenith website, he hid the plans, parts, and tools required to make mechanical movements in order to save them from destruction. This was following the decision of the company that owned Zenith at the time (the not to be named Zenith Radio Corporation) to limit production to quartz watches only.

Curiosità e personaggi famosi sul marchio Zenith
Mahatma Gandhi e il suo orologio
Il Mahatma Gandhi, noto leader spirituale e politico indiano, è stato uno degli uomini più umili e semplici della storia. Tuttavia, tra i suoi pochi beni materiali, c'era un orologio Zenith, un modello da tasca in argento che divenne uno dei suoi compagni più fedeli.
L'orologio fu un dono del suo amico Jawaharlal Nehru, Primo Ministro indiano dal 1947 al 1964, ed era caratterizzato dalla complicazione sveglia. Gandhi che apprezzava puntualità e precisione, utilizzava l’orologio e la sua funzione di sveglia quotidianamente, in particolare per le sue preghiere. In occasione di un viaggio in treno però gli venne rubato. Sei mesi dopo a Nuova Delhi il ladro tormentato dal rimorso chiese di poterlo incontrare per restituirgli l’oggetto rubato e chiedergli perdono.
Come spesso succede per gli orologi appartenuti a personaggi di spicco, anche quello da tasca di Gandhi è diventato un pezzo molto ambito. Dopo la morte del leader pacifista passò nelle mani della nipote prima e di collezionisti poi. Riapparve però nel 2009 in un’asta a New York insieme agli altri pochi oggetti materiali posseduti da Gandhi, ovvero i sa...CONTINUA A LEGGERE
