DESCRIPTION
- EL PRIMERO CHRONOMASTER 1969
The new El Primero Chronomaster 1969 chronograph is a concentrated blend of Zenith’s genetic heritage: the historical colours of the first El Primero chronograph are associated for the first time with the emblematic dial opening revealing the beating heart of the movement – the signature of the Manufacture Zenith. An authentic summary of the brand DNA.
