Zenith Defy Classic HMS Elite watch

The Zenith Defy Classic HMS Elite watch is a superb sports luxury timepiece. Refined with elegant details of fine craftsmanship, this Zenith timepiece is constructed to endure the travails of the most active lifestyle. Resistance to water is one of the design parameters of this highly capable sport timepiece. To achieve this, the 43mm brushed stainless steel case is equipped with a screw-down crown and screwed-in caseback, which assure pressure proof performance to a depth of 300 meters. The precisely rotating unidirectional bezel permits this watch to be used as a diver's instrument, and also serves with equal facility to time any short term interval up to an hour in duration. Such superb protection is well deserved, for inside the Zenith Defy Classic HMS Elite watch is a prestigious mechanical movement. Manufactured by Zenith, the self-winding Elite 680 SC Caliber is equipped with both subsidiary seconds and a rapidly adjustable date display; fully wound, it offers a power reserve of 55-hours. Despite its refined decoration and slim overall height, the Elite 680 SC Caliber offers excellent resistance to shocks and the rigors of everyday wear, thanks to a balance bridge which has been optimized by Zenith for increased toughness. A sapphire crystal window set into the caseback permits a fascinating glimpse into this fine mechanism, which is adorned with traditional cotes de Geneve and perlage decorations. The Zenith Defy Classic HMS Elite watch is presented with a white or black dial, both of which display a fine hobnail guilloche pattern, and hour markers consisting of Arabic figures alternating with faceted indices. Depending upon the aesthetic preferences of the individual, the Defy Classic HMS Elite timepiece can be ordered with a stainless steel bracelet displaying hobnail-patterned center links, a sporty and lightweight rubber strap which shares the same detail, or a finely crafted black leather strap.
