All about the ZRC Geneve Heritage REISSUE GF3811121113

All about the ZRC Geneve RÉÉDITION GF3811121113 (formerly GF38163), which impresses with its black dial.

Every detail of this exceptionally sporty-chic dive watch corresponds to the original model from the early 1960s.

Features of the ZRC Geneve RÉÉDITION GF3811121113

It is more than a dive watch, because with its bold and timeless design, this model has all the prerequisites to become an everyday companion for men and women. The simple, domed dial, the Magnum-style hands, the hour circle, and the minimalist bezel give it a multifaceted personality. The comfortable steel bracelet of the GF38163 - S2 underlines its elegant character by perfectly complementing the striking lines of the iconic hexagonal steel case. As with all ZRC® watches, the modern design ensures ultimate water resistance and incorporates the latest innovations in programmed material deformation.

1970

ZRC® developed an exclusive, retractable lug, specifically designed for the space between the lugs, which only allows the passage of the crown or the rotation of the bracelet in the closed position, making it impossible to submerge the watch if the crown is not fully screwed down. Also original is the bracelet with its two expandable links, which allow the watch to be worn over a wetsuit without further adjustments. The ultra-luminous Magnum hands ensure perfect readability underwater. The ZRC Grands Fonds® watch, revolutionary in many respects, was issued to the Paris Fire Brigade and the French water skiing team. Most importantly, however, it was the watch of the French Navy (Toulon diving school, third division of the Toulon mine clearance diver group, Commando Hubert) as well as the Italian Navy. As a watch made by divers for divers, it was also adopted by non-military units supported by the French Navy, including the famous Calypso of Commander Cousteau, which brought the watch all over the world and solidified its reputation.

About David from WATCHDAVID

Behind WATCHDAVID.SHOP, I, David Drilling, stand as a true watch enthusiast, watch photographer, and independent tester. Since 2018, I have been providing honest wear reports on my channels. In my shop, I exclusively sell watches whose quality and history I have personally verified. No anonymous mass-produced goods, but personal expertise.

Shipping & No Import Charges

Shipping within Germany and the EU is completely free for you and fully insured via DHL or FedEx Express. Important for you: There are guaranteed to be no import duties, taxes or hidden fees. The exact delivery time for your model will always be transparently displayed directly above the "Buy" button.

Cancellations & Free Returns

You can easily cancel your purchase within 14 days. Unlike other retailers, I will cover the full cost of your return shipping within the EU. Simply send me a short email to david@watchdavid.com and I will send you your free DHL return label. It doesn't get any more risk-free than that.

Authenticity & Condition of the Watches

I guarantee you 100% that all watches offered are unworn, brand new original goods. In the shop, I strictly differentiate between regular new goods directly from the manufacturer and exclusive photo watches. Photo watches are models that I have used for my videos or photos, or that come from a return. I sell them absolutely honestly as used and significantly reduced – but the full manufacturer's warranty only begins on the day of your purchase!

Warranty & David's "All-Round Carefree Service"

Every watch comes with the full, international manufacturer's warranty (at least 2 years). In the event of a warranty claim, you'll have absolutely no stress: I'll handle all communication with the brand and organize insured round-trip shipping for you. Even after the warranty period expires, I remain your personal point of contact for service inquiries.

Quality Control

Mechanical watches are fascinating masterpieces. Before dispatch, each watch undergoes a thorough optical and mechanical final inspection. Should a problem ever arise despite our secure transport protection, please inform me immediately by email. I will promptly arrange for a quick, uncomplicated replacement.
