A Defy from another dimension

Crafted entirely in mirror-polished stainless steel, the Zenith Defy Extreme Mirror 1/100th of a second chronograph is a watch that defies conventions and expectations with its a futuristic and highly reflective camouflage that blends in with its environment. The sapphire dial with applied counters reveals the El Primero 21 — the chronograph calibre of the 21st century, and the culmination of over 50 years of perfecting the automatic high-frequency chronograph. Equipped with two regulating organs and escapements - one beating at 5Hz for timekeeping, and the other at an incredible 50Hz - this movement offers a true 1/100th of a second chronograph function.

Zenith is pushing form and function to new heights with the Defy Extreme collection where resolutely futuristic watchmaking takes center-stage. As a supercharged El Primero-equipped Defy, this expression of superlative precision and ruggedness is built around a larger 45mm case with sharper lines, more pronounced edges, and an overall silhouette that exudes robustness, resilience and a penchant for exploring new horizons. The new design is reinforced by the addition of components protecting the pushers, and screw-down crown. Ergonomics as well as durability are enhanced, with a water-resistance of 200 metres – an impressive feat for a cutting-edge high-frequency chronograph with a display back. One of the Defy Extreme’s most striking elements is the twelve-sided ring placed under the bezel, which extends down to the twelve-sided case back.

Because uncompromising performance in extreme conditions also means adapting to the environment around us, each Defy Extreme comes with three different straps with quick strap-change mechanisms: A mirror-polished stainless steel bracelet, a rubber strap with a folding buckle matching the case and, and a Velcro® strap that can be easily and precisely adjusted on the go, with the textile material perfectly suited for any situation – and certainly not afraid of getting wet. Going beyond a simple cosmetic switch-up, each option offers different properties for a different wearing experience, perfectly adapted to its surroundings and the activities it takes on, no matter how extreme.
