This year, ZENITH is bringing back the first El Primero watch with a gradient dial from 1969 in the Chronomaster Revival A385. One of the most significant pieces in the El Primero story, the A385 was one of the original three stainless steel chronographs housing the world’s first automatic high-frequency chronograph. Within its tonneau-shaped steel case was an eye-catching brown gradient dial, which was possibly the first “smoked” dial ever to be made in the watch industry and certainly the first for ZENITH. 

The Chronomaster Revival collection has witnessed the return of several iconic ZENITH chronographs in stunningly accurate details. More than just vintage-inspired watches, the Chronomaster Revival collection consists of faithful reproductions of historical references, using the original production plans from 1969. It preserves the original proportions and finishing of the 37mm steel case with pump-style pushers.
