Halve and seed the melon, then peel. Cut the melon on a mandoline with the julienne blade, or cut by hand into thin slices and then again into flat "noodles" about 1/4 inch wide. Arrange in a pile on a platter or divide among 4 plates and sprinkle with a little salt. Keep refrigerated until needed. Trim the ends from the zucchini and cut into quarters lengthwise. Season with salt and pepper. Wrap each piece tightly in pancetta, using 2 pieces per quarter. Heat the olive oil in a large sauti pan over medium heat until hot. Add the zucchini and sauti until the pancetta is crispy but the zucchini is still nearly raw, about 5 minutes. Halve and seed the melon, then peel.
