Zenith ChronoMaster XXT Quantième Perpétuel

Thanks to its 36,000 vibrations per hour, the El Primero movement is the world's most accurate mechanical chronograph. It is now treating itself to a share of eternity in a perpetual calendar version.

While futility is all around, what could be more chic than to aspire to the imperishable? The Manufacture ZENITH is now offering devotees of grand horological complications the ultimate timekeeper: once rewound, it accurately indicates the hour, date, day, month and year for an entire century with no need for adjustment. Time is no longer that of instant records or a factor that can be wasted or sadly lacking; instead, it becomes generous and constructive, opening up onto boundless horizons.

Measuring such time is handled by the El Primero Calibre 4003. With rigorous precision, it performs a musical score that is tirelessly echoed by the graceful ballet of the 9 hands and pointers on the dial. The hour-markers are sculptures and the hour track is a luminous path. The case measuring 45 mm in diameter exudes elegance in pink or white gold. Its vintage design, echoing that of the Chronomaster, is reassuringly traditional, as is the beautifully executed guilloché work on the silvered dial of the pink gold version. Nonetheless, in its powdered black variation, clad in a white gold case, this Perpetual Calendar is astonishingly modern.

Representing a noble quest and embodying prestigious craftsmanship, imbued with a resolutely horological spirit yet exuding contemporary style, the new Chronomaster XXT Quantième Perpétuel is bound to appeal to collectors. Initiates will find within it the quintessence of mechanical perfection, the mastery of aesthetic details and the integrity of a know-how with an eternal soul.
