A High-Performance Chronograph Capable of 1/10th Second Measurement Now Available in 18K Rose Gold
The "Chronomaster Sport" collection, which merges Zenith's signature design codes with a new dimension of performance and precision, welcomes its latest model for 2021: crafted from lustrous 18K rose gold. The Zenith "Chronomaster Sport" boasts exceptional performance, powered by a high-frequency automatic chronograph caliber that enables 1/10th second measurement.
Since the advent of the "El Primero" caliber in 1969, Zenith has produced gold automatic chronograph models, including iconic references like the G381 and G581. The 18K rose gold "Chronomaster Sport" equipped with the "El Primero" movement continues this rich heritage.
The "Chronomaster Sport" heralds a new era for Zenith, carrying forward the grand narrative of its groundbreaking automatic chronographs. This model, which elevates high-frequency precision to new heights, showcases the manufacture's technical prowess in measuring time down to fractions of a second. By harmonizing elements from Zenith's past icons, it establishes a distinct identity. The result is this new model, adorned in the glow of rose gold, refined into a chronograph that seamlessly complements any style or occasion.
This luxurious iteration of a sporty-chic chronograph, both modern and timelessly appealing, features a 41mm 18K rose gold case with pump-style pushers. The polished black ceramic bezel is engraved with a scale for measuring 1/10th of a second. Matte gold lacquer applied to the case and dial creates a striking contrast, ensuring the elapsed time indications on the bezel are easily legible.
The lacquered white dial displays the iconic tri-color chronograph counters in rhodium, anthracite, and blue, while the hands and applied markers feature a combination of gold and black. A black calfskin strap and rose gold folding buckle accentuate the case and bezel, further enhancing the model's elegant aesthetic.
Through the sapphire crystal case back, one can admire the blue column wheel and the open-worked rotor adorned with the Zenith star. The overall form and finishing have been refined to impart a more contemporary impression.
The rose gold "Chronomaster Sport," exuding a sporty yet elegant presence that further elevates the collection's stature, is available for purchase at Zenith boutiques and authorized retailers worldwide.
