Its singular and highly intricate design serve to enhance its depth-defying performance, which was conceived to take on extreme conditions where ice, water and mist present a host of challenges. Its 42.5mm angular case is crafted in titanium, a metal that not only boasts a significant weight-to-strength ratio but is also highly resistant to corrosion from salty seawater. The case is equipped with a helium escape valve for saturation diving.

The A3648 was not only among the earliest DEFY wristwatch models, but also one of the first DEFY diver\u2019s watches.

Crafted in steel, the unidirectional rotating bezel features a sapphire crystal insert instead of Plexiglas as in historical models, with the same black on bright orange markings \u2013 one of the historical A3648\u2019s most coveted features.<\/p>\n<p>The black and orange theme extends to the dial, where the matte black surface is contrasted with orange hands and minutes track.

A symbolic number for ZENITH, as 600 metres is equal to 1\u2019969 feet \u2013 the year the DEFY wristwatch line including the A3648 was launched. The case back offers a view of Elite 670 automatic manufacture movement, with a power reserve of 50 hours.<\/p>\n<p>And just like the original, the DEFY Revival A3648 comes on a five-link steel bracelet with folding buckle, modelled after the bracelet the famed Gay Fr\u00e8res company had made for the historic reference in 1969. The deployant buckle features an expansion to allow the watch to be worn over a wetsuit without having to add or remove additional links.<\/p>\n<p>The DEFY Revival A3648 is available from all ZENITH physical and online boutiques as well as authorized retailers around the world.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ZENITH: TIME TO REACH YOUR STAR.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>ZENITH exists to inspire individuals to pursue their dreams and make them come true \u2013 against all odds.

DIVING INTO THE EXTREME END: ZENITH UNVEILS THE DEFY EXTREME DIVER ALONGSIDE THE DEFY REVIVAL A3648
Since its inception in 1969, the ZENITH DEFY line of wristwatches has been all about steadfast reliability and ruggedness. Throughout the years, the DEFY has taken on many iterations with purpose-built features and designs.
