Quick TakeThe Zenith DEFY Double Tourbillon Ref. 40.9000.9020/78.R582 stands as a paragon of horological artistry. Its platinum case and double tourbillon feature set it apart, with two escapements serving the dual functions of precise timekeeping and a high-speed chronograph. Its 50-hour power reserve and water resistance up to 10 ATM marry functionality with the luxury expected of a limited-edition piece, making it an essential addition to any watch collection.

DescriptionThe Zenith DEFY Double Tourbillon represents the zenith of timekeeping innovation, showcasing a masterful blend of advanced mechanics and luxurious materials. The heart of this limited-edition watch, Ref 40.9000.9020/78.R582, is the El Primero 9020 movement, a powerhouse of precision with 311 components. It features a unique double escapement system: one for the watch's main timekeeping at 36,000 VpH, completing a full rotation every 60 seconds, and another for the chronograph function at an extraordinary 360,000 VpH, making a turn every 5 seconds. This intricate dance is housed in a distinguished 46 mm Platinum 950 case, striking a perfect balance between robustness and refined elegance.

The openworked dial is a window into the soul of the watch, where the mechanical choreography of the double tourbillon captivates the eye. The central chronograph hand completes its swift circuit each second, a visual echo of the 1/100th of a second measurement capability. This is complemented by two sub-dials: a 30-minute counter at 3 o'clock and a 60-second counter at 6 o'clock, alongside the chronograph power-reserve indicator at 12 o'clock. Encircling the wrist is a sophisticated black rubber strap with a black alligator leather coating, further emphasizing the watch’s commitment to excellence in both function and form.
