Zenith Defy Classic Tourbillon watch

The Zenith Defy Classic Tourbillon watch encompasses the highest level of Zenith watchmaking accomplishment within a cutting edge package of sport luxury. Technically brilliant, strikingly stylish, and uncompromisingly built, the Zenith Defy Classic Tourbillon exemplifies the unique vision of haute horlogerie that this noted Manufacturer has created for itself. The mechanical movement that animates this exclusive Zenith Defy watch is manufactured by Zenith, and represents an exhaustive achievement of engineering and horological knowledge. Composed of 325 individual pieces, the self-winding Zenith 4035SC caliber features an integrated, column-wheel controlled chronograph. This prestigious mechanism is elevated to an extraordinary position due to the implementation of a one minute flying tourbillon, whose balance wheel beats at the frequency of 36,000 alternations per hour. This high-paced frequency is unique to Zenith, and represents a singular achievement in the tourbillon complication, which since the turn of the 19th century has represented a benchmark of accomplishment in the watchmaking craft. Additional outstanding features of this tourbillon construction include a balance bridge in shock resistant Zenithium, and an extremely heavy tungsten winding mass that assists the watch in achieving its full 50-hour power reserve. Like all Zenith chronograph calibers, the 4035SC can time independent intervals to 1/10 second precision. Each Zenith Defy Classic Tourbillon watch is crafted from an alluring combination of stainless steel and 18K rose gold, and measures a stately 46.5 millimeters in diameter. Equipped with a screw-down crown and chronograph pushers, this tourbillon timepiece is water resistant to a depth of 300 meters; the rotating bezel, crafted from gold rotates only in the counterclockwise direction, making this timepiece suitable as a highly luxurious dive companion. The Defy Classic Tourbillon watch is available with a white or black guilloche dial that displays applied gold hour markers and subdials, and bears a unique Zenith star atop the tourbillon aperture. A bracelet in stainless steel and 18K gold, or a patterned rubber or leather strap completes this exciting Zenith creation.
