Last year, Zenith launched the DEFY EL PRIMERO 21 chronograph watch and the first-generation DEFY LAB model, which is accurate to one hundredth of a second, opening a new chapter in watchmaking. Zenith is constantly developing on the road of watchmaking, launching high-performance and high-precision top models, and achieving self-breakthrough again and again. This year, DEFY has added new work, ranging from the simple pieces to the super complex models, showing the brand’s superb watchmaking craft. As a super-complex watch in this year’s new model, the DEFY ZERO G watch stands out among the new models with its compact size and extremely precise “gravity control” gyroscope module. Next, let’s take a look at the 2018 New Zenith DEFY ZERO G 44MM Timepiece 95.9000.8812/78.M9000

The Wrist Masterpiece that Challenge Gravity

The letter “G” in the DEFY ZERO G watch refers to Gravity in English. This watch challenges gravity through the gyroscope “Gravity Control” module. Inspired by traditional marine precision timepieces, the Gravity Control gyroscope module was originally rotated between two convex sapphire crystals and is now only 30% of its original volume, so it can perfectly match the two flat sapphire crystals on the top of the DEFY case.

 

This “gravity control” gyroscope module has been patented to counteract the effect of gravity on the speed of the watch by keeping the adjustment mechanism and the balance in the same horizontal position. And this time, the gyroscope is equipped with an EL PRIMERO star speed calibre with a measurement accuracy of one tenth of a second.

Watch Real Shot

The watch case is made of ultra-light titanium alloy and finished with satin brushed finish to give a special texture of metal.

The crown of the same material is engraved with the brand’s classic star logo, surrounded by non-slip texture design, so it feels good, and it is very convenient to adjust the time.

The double-empty dial design allows the movement to be viewed in a conspicuous manner. The black-plated movement and the delicate branches form a sharp contrast, presenting avant-garde and bold future aesthetics. The branches are like the brand’s five-pointed star logo, highlighting the three-dimensional effect of this dynamic structure.

The compact gyroscope module is located at 6 o’clock and consists of 139 micro-components. After extensive redesign and optimization, the size is reduced and the energy efficiency is improved.

The off-axis hour and minute hands are located in the 12 o’clock blue ring, complementing the fluorescent faceted hour markers and Barton style hands. The hollowed-out small seconds and power reserve are symmetrically distributed on both sides, making the overall dial look orderly and without any clutter.

The strap is also made of metal, and the H-shaped links make it fit well with the wrist after  brushing and polishing.

The watch is equipped with the El Primero 8812 S manual winding movement, consisting of 324 parts and capable of providing more than 50 hours of power reserve. This movement is the same as the EL PRIMERO star speed calibre that was born in 1969. It can be seen through the design of the transparent back, very sophisticated and exquisite.

Summary: The “gravity control” gyroscope module has achieved a revolutionary breakthrough, making the mechanical complexity of the watch even higher. The Zenith DEFY ZERO G watch also opened a new chapter in the future of fine watchmaking with the “gravity control” gyroscope module, highlighting the brand’s exquisite craftsmanship.

The Minute Repeater watch is actually divided into two sets of systems, one for walking time and one for reporting time, and the two are completely independent. The watch does not go, just dial the slider, the Minute Repeater pocket watch can still report time. However, for the Minute Repeater watch, the travel time system is still the basis, because the time is not allowed, the time of reporting is also wrong. So the first step in the specific repair work is to make the time recover accurate.

The Movement of This Zenith Minute Repeater Pocket Watch (After Repairing)

First of all, this Zenith watch has been in operation for more than 100 years. The three-wheel axle wear is more serious and can not be repaired. Therefore, the technicians stamped the old axle and replaced the new piece. Secondly, because the pocket watch has been violent bump, the ruby bearing inside the movement has cracked, so this time also replaced the new ruby. Then, the Zenith watch did not install a shock absorber at that time. Considering that Mr. Leng used it as a daily timepiece for a long time, the technician added a balance wheel shock absorber for safety. However, in order to maintain the original appearance of the pocket watch, they deliberately adopted the invisible design, taking into account the practical and appearance. Moreover, the low-carbon steel material is used in the pocket watch spring. After more than a hundred years of operation, the metal has been fatigued, not only the total energy stored, the torque decay is fast, and the power is still insufficient. So the time of the Zenith changed the clockwork again, and the Minute Repeater pocket watch was restored to the original factory state of the power reserve for about 40 hours.

Poising Tool

The handling of the movement balance is the most complicated part of this time-lapse system repair. The balance wheel is the core component of mechanical machinery. The slight offset and vibration will directly affect the accuracy of the timepiece. After the technician detected it, the balance wheel of the Minute Repeater pocket watch had been slightly offset. In order to restore it to the best travel time, they use five different tools to adjust the balance part.

First, the technician removes the balance shaft and places it on the “rotary lathe” and uses the “polish” to contact the continuously rotating balance shaft until the surface of it is smooth. This kind of operation is not only for the sake of beauty, but more importantly, it avoids unevenness, reduces the contact area and friction.

Then, the technician combines the balance shaft with the balance wheel and places it on the “Truing Calipers” to make sure that the two are perpendicular to each other without any slight tilt.

After that, place it on the two ruby edges of the “Poising Tool” for “static balance” processing to determine if the center of gravity of the entire balance is above the axis. Gently rock the balance wheel. If there is eccentricity, the balance wheel will swing from side to side after a few turns until it stops. At this time, its focus is at the bottom of the still position. After correcting the key points, you can use a small drill to cut a little metal on the back side of the key edge and then perform a balance check, so that it is repeated several times until the balance is balanced.

Finally, the entire balance wheel is mounted on the movement, placed on the “calibration meter”, and the eccentric direction is determined according to the error of the different orientations of the movement, and the eccentricity is eliminated.

After the time system is repaired, it is necessary to enter the timekeeping system.

Mr. Leng and His Zenith Minute Repeater Pocket Watch

After more than two months, Zenith has not only repaired the faulty travel time and Minute Repeater function, but also thoroughly cleaned and maintained the entire timepiece with more than one and a half century of professional watchmaking technology, making this pocket watch which has witnessed the two generations of time and emotional reborn.

Mr. Leng and His Zenith Watches

The goods are valuable, and the true sentiments is really priceless. When Mr. Leng found Zenith and commissioned the restoration of this antique timepiece, not only to restore the Minute Repeater pocket watch restore glory, but also to continue to retain and inherit the family affection memory carried on it. Zenith will use the “movement” to compare the heart, passing on this two-century family memory carrier for generations through its own professional skills.

I want to share a story with you today. One day in January 2018, the Zenith store International Finance Center (IFC) in Chengdu ushered in an old gentleman. The old gentleman named “Leng Yumin” is 79 years old. This time, he wants the clerk to help him hand over a letter to the headquarters of Zenith and entrust the official to repair a pocket watch. And this 100-year-old Zenith Minute Repeater Pocket Watch have witnessed the time and emotions of two generations.

Song Xilian born in 1907. In January 1924, he was admitted to the the Huangpu Military Academy, became the youngest graduate of the first phase of Huangpu. At the age of 27, he was the youngest lieutenant general of the National Army.

In December 1948, a French military regiment came to visit his station, during which a Zenith Minute Repeater pocket watch was presented as a gift to Song Xilian.

The Zenith Minute Repeater Pocket Watch (Before Repairing)

This Zenith Minute Repeater Pocket Watch 34587 was produced in the early 20th century, which is made of 14K gold, three-hunted watch case, and the front and back are experienced carved craft. The ceramic dial with Savonette design is matched with Breguet digital scale and peach-shaped gold hands.

The Zenith Minute Repeater Pocket Watch (Before Repairing)

The pocket watch is equipped with a manual winding Minute Repeater movement, a bimetal cut-off balance, a blue steel Breguet hairspring, a wolf-toothed steel wheel, and a rotating centrifugal reducer. Built-in double-spring, the mainspring is responsible for the travel time system while the secondary clock provides energy for the Minute Repeater time. When someone dials the time-sliding slider, the movement will use the two hammers to strike the gong to emit three different sounds representing “hours”, “quarter” and “minutes”, and broadcast the current specific time.

It is no exaggeration to say that such a configuration and function of the pocket watch was extremely valuable at that time. Even so, Song Xilian passed the pocket watch to others in less than a year.

On November 25, 1949, Song Xilian was preparing to take the troops to the west. When he left the station, he gave this pocket watch to his subordinate “Leng Peiyuan”. “Song Xilian” is the uncle of the old watchman of the pocket watch, and “Leng Peiyuan” is the father of Mr. Leng Yumin. The reason why such a valuable gift will be given is that the 10th day of the lunar calendar is the birthday of “Leng Peiyuan”, on the other hand, the future of Song move to the west is uncertain, and it is very likely that he will never return.

Leng Peiyuan has been collecting this watch until died in 1952, that year, Leng Yumin was only 12 years old. This pocket watch bearing the friendship of the father was first reserved for his mother, and then passed to the hands of Mr. Leng Yumin.

Mr. Leng Yumin insisted on retaining this Zenith pocket watch even during the most difficult and most embarrassing period. For him, this is not a costly timepiece, but the legacy of his father, and more full of friendship between the ancestors.

The Zenith Minute Repeater Pocket Watch (Before Repairing)

Whenever reminiscing about his father and ancestors, Mr. Leng will take it out and listen. With excellent quality, this Zenith Pocket Watch, which was produced in the early 20th century, has been running normally for decades in the hands of Mr. Leng, until the scene mentioned at the beginning of this article.

When technician looked this pocket watch in the original factory Leroc, Switzerland, he found that it is not easy.

First, this Minute Repeater pocket watch has been modified in the early days, slightly different from the original file; second, it not only has problems with the system, but also the components is faulty; third, it was dismantled by others in the later period, leaving some problems; fourth, after a hundred years, the pocket watch itself has natural aging and damage.

In the face of such a difficult situation, the official force did not hesitate to undertake the commission of Mr. Leng Lao.

First of all, the technician carefully looked through the precious drawings of the watch factory for more than 100 years, found the original manuscript of the antique timepiece, and began the specific repair work.

In the past three years, ZENITH has worked with Land Rover. In 2017, the two sides collaborated to launch the Chronomaster El Primero Range Rover Velar model, paying tribute to the Range Rover. The new car should be matches with the best watch, the next generation Range Rover Evoque and ZENITH’s DEFY Classic series of the latest watch jointly launched: a chic sports watch-Zenith Defy Classic Range Rover Special Watch 95.9001.670/77.R791, highlighting the iconic design.

Designed to blend urban life and country vacations, the new Range Rover Aurora is a constructive evolution of its unmistakable appearance on the basis of its enduring luxury. Its redesigned design focuses on simplicity, and the most compact Range Rover is the embodiment of modern and time-honored design, placing Aurora models at the top of the market segment.

Land Rover’s chief designer, Mr. Gerry McGovern, stated: “A major element of the new Land Rover Range Rover Aurora is expected to be available. The new Zenith Defy Classic Range Rover represents a milestone in collaborative watch design, creating the ideal time tool, at the same time, it is also a tribute to the partnership between Zenith and Land Rover.”

The new Zenith Defy Classic Skeleton Range Rover Edition is the newest member of the related watch collection and is known for its unique design. It is the performance of the modern and graphic evolution of the series. Like the Land Rover Range Rover Aurora, its beautifully proportioned 41 mm case gives it an absolute neutral appeal.

The DEFY Classic Range Rover is limited to 200 pieces, developed in close collaboration with the design and technical engineering teams, combining its own streamlined look and some of the classic elements captured from the car. These elements include, in particular, the key colours of British-made vehicles, such as the turquoise blue seconds hand and balance wheel, which is inspired by the steering wheel and seat features of the Aurora.

This exquisite timepiece is inspired by the sculptural design of the Aurora wheel, while the quilted pattern of the premium sports utility car is decorated with a “diamond” pattern and a rubber strap on the watch. For the first time, ZENITH re-improved its Defy Classic collection, powered by the new Elite skeleton movement, based on a powerful inspirational design that exudes a unique charm.

ZENITH CEO Julien Tornare said: “If Zenith is a car, it will definitely become a Land Rover Range Rover! Both are considered coordinates in their respective fields. And both have the same values and some key features, including glamour, superb technology and excellent performance. At the same time, they are based on tradition and are committed to innovation. Defy and Land Rover Range Rover are both ideal luxury brands and the cornerstones of their respective industries, creating products that instantly resonate emotionally. What’s more, both of  them draw inspiration from the past, firmly looking forward to the future.
