2 minutes read
Zenith offers its iconic models, the legendary El Primero Chronomaster, the El Primero 36’000 VpH, the Elite Chronograph Classic and the Elite 6150, in blue.

Attired in blue, the iconic El Primero Chronomaster, El Primero 36’000 VpH and Elite highlight the brand’s expertise in the realm of cutting-edge mechanics and sophisticated aesthetics.

El Primero Chronomaster
The El Primero Chronomaster, distinguished by its incredible views of the mechanism, is a model of performance and reliability. This sporty chronograph beats at the cadence of 36,000 vibrations/hour, enabling it to display tenth-of-a-second precision. Decked out in intense colours, it comes in two elegant versions: blue with snailed tone-on-tone twin counters or blue with two-toned anthracite and silver-toned counters. The sunburst dial with its facetted luminescent hourmarkers, swept over by a star-tipped central sweep-seconds hand and luminescent facetted hours and minutes hands, features an opening at 11 o’clock revealing its pulsating heart: the automatic El Primero 4061 movement. Chronometer-certified by the COSC, it is a descendant of the world’s most accurate series-made chronograph produced by Zenith. Driving central hours and minutes along with chronograph and tachymeter functions, this high-frequency movement with a 50-hour power reserve is housed in a 42 mm-diameter stainless steel case topped by a domed sapphire crystal and featuring a fluted crown and round pushpieces.

El Primero 36'000 VpH
An emblem of high precision, the El Primero 36’000 VpH chronograph is immediately recognizable by its three counter colours, an aesthetic that has been part of the Zenith DNA since 1969, when the Manufacture first presented the legendary El Primero, the world’s most precise series made chronograph.

Available in a new deep blue version, the sunburst dial features the three iconic counters interpreted in silver-toned and anthracite on the blue variation. This display featuring a blend of strength and distinction is swept over by a slim red central sweep-seconds hand and luminescent facetted hours and minutes hands. Standing at the heart of its 42 mm-diameter stainless steel case, the El Primero 400B automatic movement with its 50-hour power reserve beats at a frequency of 36,000 vibrations per hour enabling a tenth-of-a-second display, along with central hours and minutes hands, small seconds, chronograph and date functions.

Elite 6150 et Elite Chronograph Classic
The opulent and refined blue colour chosen by Zenith lights up the two stellar models of the Elite range. The Elite 6150 is representative of the collection’s DNA, while the Elite Chronograph Classic is pleasantly understated with an impetuous heart. Both embody timeless elegance as Zenith sees it. The flowing curves of a 42 mm-diameter stainless steel case, the ergonomic lugs, a pebble shape adorned with a fluted crown and a pure dial with engraved hour-markers and slender leaf-type hands underscore the apparent simplicity of accomplished expertise. The lightly domed blue dial displays its functions with simplicity and clarity, while the sapphire crystal caseback reveals a mechanism wound by a decorated oscillating weight. The Elite 6150 houses a new-generation in-house movement, the Elite 6150 calibre, endowed with over four days of autonomy thanks to two barrels and drives central hours, minutes and seconds hands. The Elite Chronograph Classic is powered by the El Primero 4069 calibre, a descendant of the series produced chronograph movement developed by Zenith in 1969. Beating at the swift frequency of 36,000 vibrations per hour, it displays hours, minutes, small seconds and chronograph functions.
