Zenith reaches for the stars with the architectural DEFY Skyline Chronograph

27 December 2025

The night sky has always been the ultimate muse for Zenith, a brand named for the highest point in the heavens. This celestial obsession finds its latest expression in the DEFY Skyline Chronograph, a timepiece that masterfully balances the grit of a bustling metropolis with the elegance of a star-studded horizon.

Inspired by the rugged 1969 "vault" watches, this new iteration features a sharply faceted octagonal case and a dodecagonal bezel that feel both geometric and avant-garde.  

The dial serves as a sophisticated canvas, showcasing a sunburst finish engraved with four-pointed stars that recall the house's 1960s archives. Beneath this cosmic surface beats the legendary El Primero 3600 calibre, a high-frequency movement that offers industry-leading 1/10th of a second precision. Every detail, from the overlapping counters to the date window at 4:30, honors the brand's heritage of horological excellence. 

Designed for a life in motion, the timepiece features an ingenious quick-change system. With the push of a button, the integrated steel bracelet can be swapped for a star-patterned rubber strap, allowing for an effortless transition from the boardroom to the city streets.

Available in metallic black, blue, or silver, it is a definitive statement of modern luxury and technical prowess.
