Zenith Captain

Zenith has created a series of watches that embody the spirit of adventure, scientific curiosity, courage, and ambition. In order to ensure the highest precision and reliability of their timepieces, Zenith equips the Captain chronograph with the proven El Primero calibre. The movement is distinguished by a fast oscillator with automatic winding and is capable of measuring short times to the nearest tenth of a second. The El Primero is the most precise chronograph movement to date and has been bestowed with numerous awards and distinctions. All parts of the movement are produced in the Swiss Zenith factory under one roof. With a new form of producing timepieces, Zenith has been revolutionising the international watch industry since the 19th century.

The timepiece from the Captain collection surprise with refined variety and meet both the technical as well as the aesthetic standards of any watch enthusiast.

Furthermore, the timepiece has a power reserve of 50-hours. The calendar function of the watch can be considered a technological masterpiece since its complex mechanisms control three discs that represent the date, day, and month, allowing for the current date to easily be read on the dial of the watch. The calendar function of the timepiece only needs to be adjusted once per year.

In addition to its perfect functionality, the Zenith Captain Winsor Annual Calendar thrills with its sleek design. The emblem of the brand, a five-pointed star, is located just below the 12 o’clock position. The long indices of the timepiece are reminiscent of a compass pointer that tells a tale of adventure and boundless freedom. The Zenith Captain Winsor Annual Calendar is available in six different variations and, therefore, offers a variety of designs that will delight any adventure seeker.

The powerful El Primero movement also operates in the Zenith Captain Chronograph. The seconds and the chronograph hand move in tenths of a second jump, making the chronograph incomparably precise.

In addition to the stop function, a date display is featured at the six o’clock marker and a small seconds subdial is displayed at the 9 o’clock marker. The Zenith Captain Chronograph is available in three versions, each of which is distinguished by their individual materials and colour combinations. The model with a stainless steel case is available both with a silver dial that is fitted with gold hands and indices, or alternatively, a black dial that is complemented by silver hands and indices.

A full moon, crescent moon, or a new moon – the Zenith Captain Moon Phase always allows it wearer to determine the current phase of the moon.

A date display and a small seconds are further useful features of the timepiece.

Furthermore, the model impresses with its minimalist design. The focus of the timepiece is placed on the big silver indices, blue hands, the delicate small seconds, and the power reserve indicator. The silver dial of the watch shines with a paired rose gold or stainless steel case. The stainless steel variants can also be paired with a cool grey dial.

A new day, a new town – the Zenith Captain is a reliable timepiece that always keeps accurate track of the current time. Since the Elite 682 movement powers this watch, it is not only an extremely accurate mechanism, but it also features a second-time-zone display on the outer ring of the dial.
