Notes

The caliber Zenith 1436 base Excelsior park 4 is perfectly integrated in this "waterproof " chronograph with round pushers. The brown dial is sublime andmakes it a unique chronograph. Henri Delauze engineer and diver, founder of the COMEX in Marseille in 1961, convinced of the importance of the watch for his divers, he joined forces with Rolex to create the ideal watchmaking tool. Official supplier of the COMEX from 1970 to 1997, the watches had a number engraved on the case back for better monitoring.
