About this watch

The Zenith Defy El Primero 21 Land Rover is a bold statement piece that seamlessly combines functionality with a striking aesthetic. Released between 2020 and 2021, this watch embodies the spirit of adventure while being rooted in Zenith's rich heritage. The grey matte finish gives it a modern, industrial look that's equally suited for both casual and formal settings. The titanium case not only ensures durability but also keeps the weight manageable, offering comfort for all-day wear. The dial is where the magic happens, with a mix of stick and dot indexes providing a clean yet intricate look. The chronograph subdials are thoughtfully placed, ensuring that they're functional while maintaining the overall elegance of the watch. And let's not forget about the lume! In low-light conditions, this watch shines brightly, making it not just a style statement but also highly functional. What truly sets the Defy El Primero 21 apart is its exceptional movement. The Zenith caliber El Primero 9004 is a self-winding marvel that boasts a cam-actuated chronograph capable of measuring time with incredible precision—up to 1/100 of a second! The watch has a power reserve of 50 minutes specifically for the chronograph, which is wound by hand. Meanwhile, the balance for regular timekeeping runs at 36,000 bph and can be wound either by hand or through the oscillating weight. This flexibility means you can keep it running whether you're wearing it daily or letting it rest for a while. With a water resistance of 100 meters, the Defy El Primero 21 Land Rover is more than capable of handling splashes and light swimming. However, it's advisable to avoid deep-water activities unless you want to risk your investment. It's designed for adventurers, but it also appreciates a little caution! One of the standout features of the Zenith Defy El Primero 21 is its versatility. Whether you're in a business meeting, out for dinner, or on a weekend adventure, this watch fits right in. The combination of a rugged design and sophisticated aesthetics makes it a great accessory for various occasions.
