zenith el primero chronograph 03.0510.400

We have seen several contemporary timepieces from Zenith which they have presented with elegance and style but today, they are introducing to us a different watch because of its classical style that they are not really known for. This new timepiece is called as the Zenith Vintage 1955.Just by reading its name, we can easily tell that this timepiece is a classic watch. This new Zenith Vintage 1955 is inspired of the conventional timepieces from years ago. The Zenith Vintage 1955 is designed with a slim case that houses the technical movement. This case is made of an elegant 18 carat rose gold material which is also the same material that composes its bezel and clasp of its black alligator leather strap. This timepiece is also presented with a classic white dial that is accented with rose gold hour markers and hands. Unlike the other Zenith watches that we have seen, this Zenith Vintage 1955 only has a small seconds counter on 6 o'clock aside from the center hour and minute counters.This Zenith Vintage 1955 watch is now available in limited edition of only 250 pieces. This watch also includes a luxurious tag of as much as $16,200.00.

Three Watchmaking Feats Zenith's tourbillon, a complication - is combined with a chronograph caliber with a calendar �C another watchmaking complication �C and a high frequency beat, a third challenge. It is the only watch on the market with such a complex mechanism, aiming to attain the most precise chronometric performance possible. This tourbillon is unique in more than one way: it shows off its rotating carriage in the upper left-hand part of the dial, including a built-in calendar. This asymmetry aesthetically highlights the tourbillon's mechanism, visible through an opening in the dial. The date is displayed �C in a patented system �C by means of a disk around the circumference of the carriage. The El Primero chronograph's automatic calibre is the heart of the movement. While the high frequency assigned to this exceptional motor generates greater precision, it also demands increased power. To protect performance, Zenith designers have developed an in-line escapement that shifts the balance spring to the outer edge of the rotating carriage. The result is a tourbillon and a high-frequency automatic chronograph with over 50 hours of power reserve. Specifications: The case, in 18kt rose gold or in stainless steel, measures 44mm (39mm dial opening). It has double AR-coated sapphire crystals and is water resistant to 100 meters. Dials come in black sunray or silver sunray with Rhodium faceted hands covered in Superluminova SLN C1 or rose gold plate for the rose gold version. Movement is the Swiss automatic Zenith in-house El Primero caliber 4035D, with 25 jewels, 36,000 vph and a power reserve of 50 hours. This caliber is composed of 381 parts (67 for the rotating cage of the Tourbillon).
