Watchfinder & Co. presents:
If you’re just getting into watches, it won’t be long before you come across the El Primero. Meaning, ‘the first’, it was the name given by its creator, Zenith, to mark the creation of the world’s first integrated automatic chronograph movement. That was 50 years ago—there’s been a lot of progress since.

It might be ab engineering marvel but for my taste is a coyote UGLY watch!
Puta: ZENITH EL PRIMO
How do you get that camera angle and the camera to focus on the watch?
Zenith defy superior. Rolex Daytona inferior.
jesus christ……
Cool watch but since human reaction time is over a tenth of a second you could never measure time within a tenth.
50Hz in a mechanical form is surely the limit. I’d imagine the service frequency is just as staggering as will be the cost. The hyper macro shots show imperfections in the finishing but this is a volume manufacture piece hence the high price isn’t astronomical. But it’s very cool and such a handsome piece. Well done Zenith, top of class.
Ahh that looks like my Pentax MX.
The tech behind the 1/100th second El Primero is amazing but I hate what Biver has done to Zenith
love this watch beautiful design
At first I thought that this looked like a pretty nice watch, then it started going bonkers. Holy shit is that an amazing piece of engineering.
This Zenith EL PRIMERO has a very cool factor for me. The 1/10th second movement.
That cheeky side eye at defy media worst prefect
Jesus this watch is dope
Holy crap, that is an exceptional timepiece and compared to some other luxury brands, very well priced for what you get. Could be my grail.
it’s cool but it aint a rollie
Where’s the second hand? Oh, wait. There it is I think.
I prefer it with a solid dial instead of the transparent dial used. The watch face is too busy looking and has poor legibility. Otherwise, I take my hat off to Zenith for producing this well engineered watch. In my view, this is a more collectable chronograph watch than any Rolex Daytona.
I will have an orgasm if I wear that
My Casio G-shock beats all these single handedly!!! These all watches require maintenance that would require lot of time, effort and money. Casio is the best. Just can’t go wrong with its in house tough movement. No maintenance whatsoever and watch for life!!
WHAT AN EXCITING VIDEO!!!
AWESOMELY DONE!!!
“Zenith Defy Zero G”
The usual silly jealous comments about Rolex ?
Grail
Daytona: lvl. 1 crook
Defy 21: lvl. 50 godfather
Beating at 360,000 VPH? That’s as fast as the polarity cycling in the Brits’ residential AC electrical supply.
Does this watch cause motion sickness, or is that just from my mind being blown?
I rarely use the chronograph function
Very nice. But I prefer watches containing Omega’s coaxial Caliber 9300/9900 family of Chronograph movements.
