DescriptionThe Zenith DEFY 21 Ultrablue Ref. 97.9001.9004/81.R946 is a testament to the fusion of avant-garde technology and striking visual appeal. Encased in a 44mm matte titanium body, the watch exudes a modern and robust presence on the wrist. The openworked dial reveals the inner workings of the El Primero 21 movement, a marvel of contemporary watchmaking. This automatic movement is adorned in captivating blue tones, highlighting its two independent high-frequency escapements. One escapement operates at a groundbreaking 50Hz specifically for the chronograph function, allowing it to measure time with unparalleled precision up to 1/100th of a second. The other maintains the watch's timekeeping at a steady 5Hz. This intricate balance of mechanics ensures not only accuracy but also a visual spectacle for the wearer and onlookers alike.

Beyond its mechanical prowess, the DEFY 21 Ultrablue is designed for practicality and comfort. The strap, a combination of black rubber with an ultrablue "Cordura effect" rubber, provides durability and a unique aesthetic that complements the watch's overall design. The strap is secured with a microblasted titanium double folding clasp, offering ease of wear and a secure fit. The watch's functionality is rounded out with a 30-minute counter, a 60-second counter, and a power-reserve indicator, all laid out in a manner that is both intuitive and visually pleasing. Water-resistant up to 10 ATM, this timepiece is not only an engineering feat but also a versatile accessory for daily wear or special occasions, making it a favorite among those who appreciate the art of high-frequency chronographs.
