Tutima 760-42 *ZUZ*

[Saturnin]

Hello all ,

After 5 years of hunting activity I have the chance to catch this marvelous Lemania 5100 :



not so easy to find mainly in full set configuration including the official ZUZ cloth badge :



this watch does not belong to the DKxxx serie but is engraved 616xxx on the titan case back .

the next ? a GSG9 within the next 5 years

What's with all these great purchases???
Nothing for ages then Bam BAAAAM, an EZM4 and now a ZUZ ???
Wow.
So - un-numbered, are we thinking this is the commanders prototype?
And was this the one sold by Jurgens back in the day????
Do tell (when you have it of course)

Hi Dave ,

are you meaning that this chrono is a prorotype ?

for me it's the Tutima *Commando* and this one was allocated for the ZUZ dpt as several others.

The S/N engraved on the titan case-back belongs to the serial commercial *Commando* ie 616xxx.

I bought this watch a couple of weeks ago = best = JL+

Hi JL+,

stunning watch. Together with your EZM-4: two really great Lemania Chronos. I know you looked quite a long time for these

Best, rega

I am thinking that this may have been the watch made for as the prototype for the ZUZ commander, so that he could assess it and decide whether to buy these, or revert back to the EZM1 that he had helped Sinn to develop.
To my knowledge, the first ZUZ Tutima that ever came to market was sold by Jurgens (the strap etc people) as the commanders prototype, and to my knowledge, it, unlike almost all of the other ones, lacked the additional DK number on the caseback.
So yours may even be more unique than you thought.........
