The perfect combination of sporty elegance and technological precision. Zenith Chronomaster Sport represents a true revolution in the world of luxury watches.
With its advanced El Primero 3600 calibre, it offers unrivalled timekeeping precision, iconic design and ultimate performance to satisfy even the most demanding watch enthusiasts.
The Zenith brand has declared 2021 the 'Year of the Chronomaster' and it was not an unwarranted declaration. At January's prestigious LVMH Watch Week 2021, the Swiss manufacture unveiled the new Zenith Chronomaster Sport collection, which pushes the boundaries of precision and performance to a whole new level. This exceptional automatic timepiece features the advanced El Primero 3600 calibre, which offers the ability to measure time to an astonishing accuracy of 1/10th of a second.
The machine operates at an impressive frequency of 5 Hz (36,000 vibrations per hour), making it one of the most precise chronographs in the world. In addition, Zenith's engineers have managed to extend the power reserve to a full 60 hours, a significant improvement over previous models.
The Chronomaster Sport is a men's luxury watch that transcends conventional categories. It offers a sporty soul with an elegant body, so you can wear it with confidence during sporting activities as well as with a formal suit. This chronograph in a contemporary design carries the clear DNA of Zenith, which is evident in every detail.
The new model represents the culmination of more than 50 years of innovation, which began with the launch of the world's first automatic high-frequency chronograph calibre. The designers drew inspiration from the brand's illustrious heritage - the chronographs that Zenith has created over many decades. The Chronomaster Sport thus sets a new standard for precision, performance and design in the luxury men's watch segment.
The movement boasts an impressive 311 components, which are hand-assembled with the utmost care to ensure unwavering precision. The iconic three-colour dial, a hallmark of El Primero chronographs since 1969, gives the watch its unmistakable identity. Zenith is the first in the world to display 1/10th of a second on a ceramic lunette, marking a significant step in the evolution of chronographs.
The Zenith collection also includes the A385, which pays tribute to the brand's historical legacy. This watch was one of the three original stainless steel models equipped with the famous El Primero calibre. It was launched alongside the world's first automatic high-frequency chronograph calibre in 1969.
The A385 stood out with its striking smoky brown gradient dial, which was the first of its kind not only for the Zenith brand, but probably for the entire watchmaking world. This design element now returns in a modern interpretation that combines historical aesthetics with the latest technological innovations.
The new Zenith Chronomaster Sport men's watch features a black etched ceramic lunette that ensures excellent legibility every passing 1/10th of a second. At first glance, it catches the eye with its perfect combination of shine and brushing on the 41 mm × 13.6 mm stainless steel case. The distinctive shape of the pushers accentuates the unmistakable design, while the water resistance to 100 meters (330 feet) ensures practical usability in everyday life.
Whether you choose a model with a black or white dial, you will always get the iconic El Primero three-colour chronograph in blue, anthracite and light grey, a reference to the legendary A386 model from 1969. Each of the counters is ingeniously graduated to 60 ticks, allowing for an intuitive and instantaneous reading of the chronograph function:
The central chronograph hand of the watch makes one complete rotation in just 10 seconds, another revolutionary design feature. The El Primero 3600 calibre operates at a frequency of 5 Hz (36,000 vibrations per hour) and is fully visible through the sapphire dial. The extended power reserve of 60 hours ensures high user comfort even when the watch is put away for extended periods.
The integrated steel bracelet is a masterpiece of ergonomics. It is carefully tuned to be comfortable to wear on the wrist, while evoking the historic bracelets made for Zenith by the renowned manufacturer Gay Frères. For those who prefer a sportier look, the watch is also available on a Cordura-effect rubber strap, which gives the watch a modern and dynamic character.
The combination of stainless steel and premium materials ensures that the Zenith Chronomaster Sport automatic watch can withstand the harsh conditions while retaining its luxurious look. The contrast between the polished and brushed surfaces creates a fascinating play of light that underlines the sophistication of this extraordinary timepiece.
The Zenith Chronomaster Sport collection offers a variety of options to satisfy even the most demanding watch enthusiasts. You can choose a model with a classic black dial that exudes sporty elegance, or one with a white dial that has a clean and modern look.
Each variant is available with either an integrated steel bracelet, which emphasises the premium character of the watch, or with a Cordura-effect rubber strap that provides maximum comfort during sporting activities. Whatever your choice, you get a luxury men's watch with unrivalled technical excellence and timeless design.
