The DEFY Skyline Sapphire – a contemporary heir to the legendary 1969 ZENITH DEFY wristwatch. This timepiece effortlessly weaves together the past and the present, boasting striking architectural aesthetics and unshakable durability that define the essence of this iconic line.
Borrowing inspiration from the deep blue expanse of a starry night sky that has become a hallmark of numerous ZENITH Boutique Editions, the DEFY Skyline Sapphire takes it up a notch with a mesmerizing display of dazzling gems. The twelve-sided steel bezel is adorned with 45 baguette-cut blue sapphires, elevating the allure of the metallic blue dial adorned with a captivating four-pointed star geometric pattern.
Designed for convenience and style, it comes with an integrated steel bracelet, and for those looking to switch things up, a blue-patterned rubber strap is also included. This timepiece
comes with an ingenious quick strap-change mechanism, requiring no tools – a testament to ZENITH’s commitment to innovation.
At the heart of the DEFY Skyline Sapphire, the El Primero 3620 automatic high-frequency calibre beats with precision. It showcases a remarkable 1/10th of a second indicator, driven directly from the 5Hz escapement. With a generous power reserve of approximately 60 hours and a stop-second mechanism for precise time-setting, this watch is a paragon of accuracy.
Exclusive to ZENITH physical and online boutiques worldwide, the DEFY Skyline Sapphire in its 41mm glory is more than just a timepiece; it’s a fusion of timeless elegance and cutting-edge craftsmanship, poised to make a statement on your wrist.
