The Zenith Defy Extreme Lapis Lazuli 06.9200.9004/51.I001 features a 45mm diameter case crafted from a striking combination of micro-blasted gold and polished stainless steel, with a captivating skeletonized dial presented in cosmic blue lapis lazuli. Through the translucent, deep skeletonized dial, the watch's groundbreaking movement is visible, a mechanical masterpiece capable of measuring precision down to 1/100th of a second, embodying the ultimate in timekeeping with exceptional performance.
Gold tones also permeate the hands, hour markers, and lapis lazuli dial. Each lapis lazuli dial is a work of art born of nature: a deep blue background adorned with shimmering pyrite, ensuring the uniqueness of each timepiece. The 1/100th-second markers on the outer ring of the dial are rendered in blue, creating a harmonious and unified aesthetic throughout. A seconds counter is located at 6 o'clock, a minutes counter at 3 o'clock, a power reserve indicator at 12 o'clock, and a small seconds subdial at 9 o'clock.
The Zenith Defy Extreme Lapis Lazuli is powered by the ElPrimero 9004 movement, a remarkable evolution of Zenith's legendary ElPrimero high-frequency chronograph movement. It remains the only mechanical chronograph movement in the brand's regular production series capable of measuring precisely 1/100th of a second. This technological achievement is made possible by two independent escapements: one operating at 5 Hz (36,000 vibrations per hour) for precise timekeeping; and the other operating at an astonishing 50 Hz (360,000 vibrations per hour) for the chronograph function. The latter drives the central chronograph hand to complete one full revolution around the dial every second, resulting in crystal-clear readability accurate to 1/100th of a second.
