Story & Heritage:

Zenith is one of the most important Swiss watch manufacturers, founded in 1865, and the El Primero movement is one of the most iconic chronograph movements ever produced.

When Zenith introduced the El Primero in 1969, it was revolutionary: an automatic chronograph movement beating at 36,000 vibrations per hour, allowing the chronograph to measure time to 1/10th of a second, something very rare even today.

The El Primero movement became so respected that even Rolex used Zenith El Primero movements in the famous Rolex Daytona models between 1988 and 2000, a testament to the movement’s quality and precision.

Owning a Zenith El Primero is not just owning a watch, but owning a piece of horological history — a movement that changed the watch industry and remains one of the most respected chronograph calibres ever made.

This Zenith El Primero Chronograph Automatic represents an excellent opportunity to own a classic Swiss luxury chronograph with one of the most legendary movements in watchmaking history.

The watch will be carefully packed and shipped insured.
