$6,700.00

This Zenith Chronomaster honors the brand's storied heritage with a steel and rose gold interpretation of the El Primero.

The Zenith El Primero Chronomaster reference 51.2080.400/69.C494 embodies the brand's legacy of precision and design innovation, instantly recognizable by the three overlapping subdials that have defined the El Primero since 1969. Its silver dial draws the eye with a tachymeter scale tracing the outer flange and warm rose gold-toned accents that echo the 18k rose gold bezel. The 42mm stainless steel case pairs fine brushing and polishing with angular lugs for a distinctly sporty profile, reinforced by 100 meters of water resistance. At its heart beats the high-beat El Primero 400 automatic movement, running at 36,000 vibrations per hour to deliver chronograph precision to 1/10th of a second and a smooth, mesmerizing glide of the seconds hand. The sapphire exhibition caseback showcases the beautifully finished caliber, revealing the ingenuity that made horological history.
