The darling of the vintage chronograph world, The Zenith A3818 ‘Covergirl’ appears on the cover of Manfred Rössler’s superlative book on all things Zenith: Zenith: Swiss Watch Manufacture Since 1865. Revolution magazine, in collaboration with Zenith, re-issued this rare piece in a near exact 1:1 copy of the original to great fanfare in 2020. It is considered to be one of the best re-issues from any watch manufacture.
