Few watch brands are more strongly associated with a particular color than Zenith is with blue.
The insider-admired Swiss watchmaker has used various shades of blue throughout its catalog for decades, even making it the centerpiece of its recent 160th anniversary celebration.
Coincidentally, few watch brands are more strongly associated with a single design than Zenith is with the Chronomaster, which is often conflated with its iconic movement family, the El Primero chronograph.
Zenith has combined these two defining traits once again in the new Chronomaster Original, which features the first blue dial with tricolor sub-dials in the series.
The Chronomaster Original and its sportier counterpart, the Chronomaster Sport, are the modern evolution of the A386, Zenith’s—and, technically, the world’s—first automatic chronograph.
With all of those factors combined, it is fair to dub this new Chronomaster Original the quintessential Zenith watch.
