Men's vintage Zig-Zag gold dial "Le Zouave" watch old

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description
Men's wristwatch with a vintage aesthetic, signed "ZIG-ZAG" on the dial. This model features a classic round shape, with a visible gold-finished bezel, and prominent, slender lugs. The dial displays a matte ivory hue, punctuated by discreet black round hour markers and three thin hands (hour, minute, second) also in gold. The inscription "LE ZOUAVE" is printed on the lower part of the dial. No date indication or complication is visible on this face.

The watch is distinguished by its clean design and geometric typography typical of productions from the second half of the 20th century. The overall impression clearly evokes an inspiration from the 70s to 80s, with a sought-after sobriety and an uncluttered dial. The color of the bezel, the polished appearance of the metal, and the simplicity of the graphics accentuate the retro character of this piece.

The case appears to have a smooth surface, with no visible pattern or engraving on the front. The lugs are integrated into the case, slightly curved outwards, highlighting the watch's slender silhouette. No strap is present in the photo; only the lug ends are visible.

The watch shows slight signs of wear: a few discreet oxidation spots or stains are visible on the dial, as well as a patina on the metal of the bezel. No major cracks or chips are visible on the front face.

The inscriptions "ZIG-ZAG" and "LE ZOUAVE" are clear and legible. No other logo, serial number, or secondary mark appears on the visible face.

Condition
Untested vintage watch, sold as a used item and as is. Presence of wear marks, stains on the dial, and patina on the bezel, visible in the photo. Functionality not guaranteed.

Did you know? The Zig-Zag brand, famous for its rolling papers, used its name on various promotional items throughout the 20th century, including watches, alarm clocks, or accessories, often in limited series intended for promotion. The "Le Zouave" model refers to the iconic figure of the soldier, who is also the historical logo of Zig-Zag.
