Owning a piece of living history is no small thing. With Zenith being one of the oldest luxury watch houses in operation, there is a special pleasure in celebrating tradition, innovation, and legacy.

Adding a limited-edition timepiece to your collection is like capturing a bit of horological magic and stashing it away in your pocket…to be brought out now and again for all the world to admire.

With this Chronomaster Original Hodinkee by Zenith, only 300 pieces were produced, making it a challenge to obtain. With its reference to Hodinkee, there is a professional tipping of the hat to the influential horological blog.

As a self-winding automatic timepiece, this winner is driven by Zenith’s El Primero 3600 caliber, which beats at 36,000 vph, has 35 jewels, featuring hacking second mechanism and offers up a convenient 60 hours of power, and can be enjoyed via the exhibition case back.

Functionalities include a column wheel chronograph with central second hand that measures timing down to 1/10th of a second, and there is a trio of multicolored subdials that display a small seconds, a 60-minute chronograph counter, and a 60-second small chronograph indicator.

Beneath the domed scratch-resistant sapphire crystal we encounter a handsome salmon-colored dial upon which it is easy to read all measurements, including the date window that you will find nestled between 4 and 5. Luminous hands and hour markers make telling the time in low light easy.

The stainless steel case measures 38 mm in diameter, 12 mm in height, and rests upon a stainless steel bracelet with a folding clasp. The winding crown is push / pull and this piece is rated down to a water resistance of 50 m / 5 atm.

From its limited-edition status to its unique and handsome stylings, we are pleased to offer this exquisite timepiece here at an attractive pricing point.

Standout Feature(s): Limited edition of only 300 pieces produced; Zenith El Primero 3600 caliber with 60-hour power reserve; celebrates commemorative Hodinkee edition; power-reserve indicator; handsome salmon-colored dial.
