MORE OPEN, MORE STELLAR

Drawing inspiration from modern cityscapes where structures and light are bound in a constantly moving interplay, the DEFY Skyline Skeleton opens a whole new world of possibilities to what a skeleton watch can be. Reprising the octagonal geometry of the early DEFY models of the 1960s, the angular steel case of the DEFY Skyline Skeleton retains the same DNA of robustness and durability as its predecessors while bringing an edgier and more architectural aesthetic. The harmoniously symmetrical open dial takes on the form of a four-pointed stars, in a nod to the ZENITH “double Z” logo of the 1960s. Its high-frequency automatic El Primero calibre provides a constantly running 1/10th of a second counter.
EL PRIMERO 3620 MOVEMENT

The DEFY Skyline’s automatic manufacture movement beats at a high frequency of 5Hz (36’000 VpH) and is endowed with a highly efficient bi-directional automatic winding mechanism that delivers a power reserve of 55 hours.
