Swiss luxury watchmaker Zenith continues to push the limits of performance and design to the extreme for the trailblazers who forge their own path and leave a mark on time with the DEFY EXTREME, an all-terrain 1/100th of a second chronograph. Zenith is also continuing to express the notion of high-frequency precision through light, colours and motion across the DEFY watch collection with a number of new highly chromatic creations.
After coming together to drape the Zenith luxury Manufacture in Le Locle with a unique work of art, Zenith and Argentinian-Spanish artist Felipe Pantone have collaborated in creating an object that is at once a feat exceptional watchmaking prowess and a piece of wearable kinetic art: the DEFY 21 Felipe Pantone.

Using the DEFY 21 1/100th of a second chronograph as his canvas, world-renowned contemporary artist Felipe
Pantone reinterpreted it to incorporate his strikingly colourful aesthetic while playing with frequencies – visually and mechanically. To achieve his “visible spectrum concept”, where all the detectable frequencies of light and its refracted colours come into play with the highest-frequency chronograph in production, Zenith sought new solutions and technologies to make it a reality. This includes the “rainbow” PVD silicon coating applied for the very first time on a movement’s bridges, the intentionally distorted lightning-bolt central hour and minute hands filled with the same rainbow PVD treatment as the movement, and a moiré optical effect produced by fine alternating white and black bands using precise laser-engraving and lacquering techniques.
Limited to 100 pieces and sold out within 24 hours of its commercial release, Zenith DEFY 21 Felipe Pantone timepiece comes with a second iridescent rainbow-effect strap, as well as an artwork and certificate signed by the artist himself.

With its signature tri-color dial, the Chronomaster Sport has a 41mm steel case and a polished black ceramic bezel. The watch is powered by the newest version of the legendary calibre, the El Primero 3600, the fruit of 50 years of research and perfections. Thanks to its high frequency of 5Hz (36’000 VpH), the remarkable timepiece offers precision of 1/10th of a second in an easy-to-read display, plus an extended power reserve of 60 hours. Visible through the sapphire display back, the new architecture reveals a blue column wheel and an open rotor marked with the Zenith star.

NFL football star Aaron Rodgers, named Most Valuable Player in the league, is the new face of Zenith and a fitting ambassador for the Chronomaster Sport watch.
Zenith announced its partnership with NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who lives this philosophy to the fullest. After decades of hard work and discipline, Rodgers is at the peak of his career. He is rated the number one quarterback in the NFL, has set many
records, been named the Most Valuable Player in the NFL, and led his team, the Green Bay Packers, to victory in Superbowl XLV. Today he continues to challenge himself to be the best and play at the highest levels of the game, as he has for the past decade.
Julien Tornare, CEO of Zenith, says, “Aaron Rodgers is undoubtedly a name that will go down in sports history for fundamentally changing the game of football. His focus, determination, and relentless ambition to always outdo himself and lead his team to spectacular victories have made him someone to admire and look up to. Aaron has reached his star, and changed the game while doing it, but remains incredibly humble and charming when he’s off the field. On behalf of Zenith, I’m honoured to welcome Aaron Rodgers as our new brand ambassador.”
Of the partnership, Aaron Rodgers says, “I couldn’t be more thrilled to join Zenith as its ambassador. I love how this brand is always pushing boundaries and literally building the future of watchmaking. What really moved me with Zenith is how they’re always working to inspire young men and women to go out there to reach for the stars and turn their dreams into reality.” Rodgers’ commitment to excellence and precision make him the perfect ambassador for Zenith’s Chronomaster Sport, an evolution of the seminal El Primero column-wheel chronograph calibre with improved performance and a new, dynamic design language.
