Following the unveiling of Zenith’s new Chronomaster Sport in full titanium, the Swiss luxury watchmaker has released an exciting new Defy Skyline model that’s fitted with a high-frequency tourbillon.

Ever since Zenith premiered the Defy Skyline, the model has received several reiterations ranging from a smaller 36mm case size, diamond-set bezels, to openworked dials. The newest release showcases the Maison’s watchmaking prowess and mechanical artistry through the integration of its prized movement – the El Primero 3630 – along with a high-frequency tourbillon that can be spotted on its elegant watch face.

As a result, a few aesthetic changes have also been implemented into the watch’s dial design. The usual sunburst-patterned has been adapted to in a radial effect that elegant frames the tourbillon on the 6 o’clock position. The rest of the watch, from lumed indices, handset to Zenith’s emblematic four-pointed star remains faithful to the model’s signature codes.

The blue-dialed variant has a tag of $55,300 USD, while the black ceramic version retails for $65,400 USD. Both options are now available via Zenith as well as authorized global retailers.
