Zenith and J.N. Shapiro give Calibre 135 an American guilloché identity

The 39.15mm watch uses three hand-cut dial patterns: barleycorn, basketweave and Shapiro’s Infinity Weave. Its manually wound 2.5Hz movement is COSC-certified, regulated to within two seconds per day and offers about 72 hours of power reserve.
Zenith lists the edition at CHF 68,900. The dial work is performed in California, while the decorated movement links an historic Swiss chronometer architecture with finishing associated with American pocket watches.
