I don’t really get the point here… A 100th of a second chronograph and a totally un-legible layout/dial… WTF!
ZUBLOT
JCB is really “Hubloing” zenith haha
I really like it, especially the black one.
closed dial for me.
The closed dial is gorgeous.
I think this is my favorite release from BaselWorld.
At 1:05 you mentioned a 12 hour chronograph? I believe the counter at 3 o’clock is 30 minutes and the chrono on full charge runs for 50 minutes.
Can’t wait to see this in the flesh!
I love everything about it except the horrid croc strap! It doesnt go well with the sporty feel of the watch. Do you know if Zenith will make other straps options?
Remarkably ugly
I’d definitely go for the closed dial! Absolutely gorgeous!
It just struck me that at a Baselworld where every brand was looking backwards, be it reissues or an anniversary update of an old model, Zenith was the only brand looking forwards into parts unknown. Very impressed by the Zenith 21 movement, on the grail list for sure!
By Basel 2018 a further 25% of the watch industry will have gone. The Defy at this price point kind of explains why. There’s a strong move back towards smaller 38mm – 42mm case sizes.. classic 3 hand day-date + chronos + diver styles at $2,500 – $4,900 price range with 20mm lug/strap width seem to be what people/collectors are looking for.. Evidence that brands are pulling back everything over 42mm becasue second hand values have fallen on large case models. Be interesting to see what happens to the Rolex 43mm Sea Dweller at $10,000. In a meeting recently one guy was wearing a 38mm Rolex and another an IWC 43mm Pilot, guess which one people wanted….
Look at this way, u now get modern hublot aesthetics with a proper movement to match the advance looks
wow!!!! love zenith!!!
I think it looks nice.
hublot strap ande buckle. and whats up with the straight right side of case? biver almost made it an entry level hublot without the screws.
Price? USD, preferably CAD.
Hublot classic fusion
How accurate is it?
I love it despite the 44mm case size. Even like the skeleton dial on these!
imho, this looks really close to the VC oversea…doesnt it?
I think anything other than the solid dial is a novelty. A cool novelty but a novelty…
