Zenith’s “Yaojin” flies
First of all, let’s take a look at the latest PILOT pilot series Chinese limited edition watch in the picture. This watch still maintains the most significant design features of Zenith’s “Dafei”: a wide disc, huge luminous hour markers, and hands. And the “onion head” crown, etc., with a full flight watch charm. In addition, Zenith also gave it an extremely retro bronze case and a particularly eye-catching “Yellow Gold” color plate, which makes the appearance more conspicuous.

Today, this design has become an important design element for all pilot copy watches.

Zenith “Black and Black” high frequency timing
The other one of the limited editions in China, the DEFY series EL PRIMERO 21 Chinese limited edition watch in the picture, is positioned with the term “black black”. Under the low-key, deep black appearance, the connotation is dazzling. The golden movement has a meaning of “deeply hidden”, which is both stable and rich in connotation.

Looking at the dial, the dial has a 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock, a 60-second counter at 6 o’clock, and a small seconds counter at 9 o’clock. The chronograph button is activated, and the central golden chronograph hands rotate around the dial every second. A lap, extraordinarily cool.
Zenith equipped this watch with a black ceramic case. The side is treated with a wire drawing process to resist scratches and wear.

On both sides are square chronograph buttons, and the chronograph components run smoothly.
