Reveal Your Creative Side With Zenith's New Release, a Box Set of 8 Vibrant Timepieces - These  Unique Watches Are a Kaleidoscope of Colour!!

The DEFY 21 Ultra Colour box set by Zenith

With its vibrantly coloured dials in the 1970s or ground-breaking movements completed with startling hues in its more recent innovations, ZENITH has never shied away from chromatic innovation. Via the DEFY 21, the first model to include ZENITH's revolutionary El Primero 1/100th-of-a-second chronograph movement, ZENITH aimed to convey the concept of high-frequency accuracy through the frequencies of light and colours.

This notion was initially realised in 2020 with the DEFY 21 Ultraviolet, which created a new design code for the DEFY 21; ZENITH is now expressing this concept in its entirety with the DEFY 21 Ultra Colour box set.

Comprising of eight variants of the DEFY 21 and restricted to just eight box sets, the Ultra Colour pieces are created in lightweight titanium with a matte surface, enabling the internal chromatics to shine. The open dial includes elevated chronograph counters that complement the grey tone of the case. Under the raised chronograph counters, brilliant metallic colours are applied to the watch's mechanism, the least anticipated component.

Black, blue, violet, orange, pink, green, turquoise, and khaki are the eight monochromatic hues used to complete the bridges and oscillating rotor of the eight Ultra Colour pieces.

The metallic tones fluctuate with the light, heightening the series' feeling of volume and vitality. The rubber straps with a cordura-like texture are also fashioned to complement the colours of the movement.

Visible through the dial as well as the sapphire case back is the exceptional El Primero 21 automatic high-frequency 1/100th of a second chronograph that is at the pinnacle of performance and precision, with two independent regulating organs and gear trains for the timekeeping and chronograph functions, operating at frequencies of 5Hz (36'000 VpH) and 50Hz (360'000 VpH), respectively.

The Ultra Box set is presented in a clear acrylic presentation container with an iridescent look that refracts light to exhibit various colours depending on the angle of the light. Each watch's case back is engraved with a limited edition number from 1 to 8, and each box set will include watches that are sequentially numbered from 1 to 8 rather than having the same number for all eight watches.

The DEFY 21 Ultra Colour box set is available only through ZENITH's physical and online shops across the globe.
