DescriptionThe Zenith DEFY 21 Ref. 95.9002.9004/78.R584 is an exemplar of modern watchmaking, where functionality meets finesse. Its robust 44mm brushed titanium case houses the sophisticated El Primero 21 movement, renowned for its two independent high-frequency escapements. The watch's ability to measure time to the nearest 1/100th of a second is displayed through a central chronograph hand that makes a full rotation every second—a dance of precision that captures the essence of time. This mechanical prowess is matched by a power reserve of at least 50 hours, ensuring that the watch keeps ticking with unwavering reliability. The dial itself is a feat of design, openworked to reveal the 293 components beneath, set against a backdrop of two differently colored counters which provide a vibrant contrast and enhance readability.

The DEFY 21's dial is not only a marvel of engineering but also of legibility and aesthetics. Time is tracked by the hours and minutes in the center, while the small seconds at 9 o'clock maintain a discreet presence. The chronograph's functionality is further expanded with a 30-minute counter at 3 o'clock and a 60-second counter at 6 o'clock, both set within the open face that boldly showcases the watch's inner workings. For an added touch of sophistication, the timepiece is paired with a blue alligator leather-coated black rubber strap, combining luxury with durability. A titanium double folding clasp secures the watch on the wrist, embodying the balance between elegance and resilience. This watch is water-resistant up to 10 ATM, ready to accompany the wearer through the demands of the day.
