Zenith

The similarities to Rolex’s Cosmograph Daytona were much-remarked upon when it came out last year, but if you’re going to be compared to one watch, it may as well be that. Rolex’s icon with the ceramic bezel and panda dial is one of the best-looking designs ever made. Plus, Zenith equipped its new Chronomaster with its proprietary “El Primero” movement, a mechanism with an uncommonly high frequency – way faster than Rolex’s. It means it can record elapsed time down to not just the second, but to 1/10th of a second, a breakthrough in watchmaking. The “quintessential Zenith sporty-chic chronograph” now comes in new models with new case materials: 18kt rose gold with a rose gold bracelet and two-tone 18k rose gold with a stainless steel bracelet. The overlapping sundials, pump-style side pushers and 41mm case remain. Something to fill the desirability gap for that unattainable Daytona? Or a uniquely cool watch on its own terms? It’s both.
