By applying a thin mirror polish only to the edges, it achieves a composition that accentuates sharp contours within a calm texture.\u003cbr\u003eThe silver sunray-finished dial is adorned with highly legible bar indexes and the traditional \"☆ (star)\" logo. It presents a neat and refined appearance that blends well with modern styles, while still retaining an antique charm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe crown still bears the rare \"double Z\" logo, which was seen from the 1960s to the 1970s. This design, where two \"Z\"s intersect at right angles, forms a sharp four-pointed star, an important detail that tells the story of Zenith's design history leading to the current star-shaped logo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInside, it is equipped with the in-house manual-winding movement Cal.2562, a high-beat movement operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour.
