S.58

Zenith esitteli S.58 sukeltajankellon vuonna 1958. S.58 nimen tarkkaa etymologiaa ei tunneta, mutta sen arvellaan tulevan sanasta Super water resistant tai mahdollisesti Scaphandre, joka on tarkoittaa ranskaksi sukellusta.

S.58 mallia valmistettiin neljänä eri versiona ja neljällä eri koneistolla. Mk1 mallissa oli Zenith cal. 120 manuaalivetoinen koneisto. Seuraavissa Mk2-Mk4 malleissa käytettiin automaattikoneistoa.
