l30w36 zenith

This timepiece will take you to the peak of satisfaction not only because it is a Zenith, but because it is equipped with features that will make time-telling easy and efficient. Unlike other watches that measure their quality through the complications on their face, this watch is a clear manifestation of horological technique.The brand's watch making mastery is showcased through the Zenith Grande Class Rattrapante Grande Date, clad in an 18-Karat white gold case which measures 44mm wide matched by an alligator strap with a triple deployant white gold clasp complete with the star of Zenith.We could not help but gloat over the acclaimed El Primero chronograph mechanism which powers the watch. This self-winding calibre was first launched in 1969, and is able to provide a unique 1/10 second precision, thanks to a balance wheel oscillating at 36,000 alternations per hour.The Zenith Grande Class Rattrapante Grande Date watch sports a Cobalt dial which blends well with the silver-color Arabic numerals and hour indices. There are two chronograph sub-dials, and a date display window at 6 o'clock.
