Building on the legacy of edginess and performance of the wristwatches of 1969. the newest Zenith Defy Skyline collection features the Manufacture’s latest generation of the El Primero high-frequency calibre. This Defy Skyline model has an alluring blacked-out look crafted entirely in black ceramic- including the bracelet. The ceramic material is much harder than traditional metals and alloys. making it a compelling choice for the “all-situations” watches of the Defy collections. Unlike blackened metal elements which are simply plated. the ceramic in these watches itself is black and will never wear off- including in the bracelet.
The Defy Skyline Ceramic model features a black galvanic dial with a sunray finish which captures light beautifully on the dial. The entire dial features a geometric pattern consisting of the Zenith four-pointed stars. Evoking the starry night sky. the blackened star-shaped sunken into the dial feature sharp inward facets with different angles catching light.
This model is powered by the El-Primero 3620 automatic high-frequency manufacture movement. beating at the rate of 5Hz. The efficient automatic bi-directional winding mechanism with a blackened star-shaped rotor delivers a power reserve of approximately 60 hours!
A black patterned rubber strap with a blacked steel folding clasp is also included. and swapping between them is easy with the quick strap-change mechanism integrated in the case back! Two looks for the price of one!
