Splash Down with Zenith's Newest Dive Watches
Zenith transforms DEFY Extreme Diver with a daring, vibrant new hue
Strap on a piece of aquatic elegance with Zenith's latest additions to their DEFY line, the DEFY Extreme Diver and DEFY Revival. Designed for the bravest of deep-sea explorers, these bad boys sport a sleek titanium build and vibrant yellow accents, making them a shining beacon in the darkest depths.
Zenith first unveiled its DEFY series in 2017 and has since expanded its dive watch collection with new contenders. The DEFY Extreme Diver and DEFY Rival have received the 'shadow treatment,' now cloaked in a strong, matte finish titanium that's built to endure the most extreme diving conditions.
The DEFY Extreme Diver packs a punch with its 42.5mm case and a black ceramic rotating bezel. With a water resistance of 600 meters, it's armed with a helium escape valve and boasts a black and yellow star pattern on its dial. Yellow hints can be found in the skeletonised hour, minute, and seconds hands, ensuring easy visibility, even in pitch-black depths. Powered by the El Primero 3620 movement, the watch boasts a 60-hour power reserve and offers a stellar view of its inner workings through the caseback, complete with a star overlapping the scene.
Dress it up with an interchangeable titanium bracelet or switch it out for a black rubber strap or black and yellow fabric strap. Style, innovation, and durability—the DEFY Extreme Diver has got you covered.
For those who yearn for a more vintage vibe, the DEFY Revival is the perfect match. Inspired by Zenith's first DEFY watch from 1969, this bad boy sits in a smaller 37mm case and sports a black and yellow dial with yellow hands. A yellow-tinted sapphire insert in the unidirectional rotating bezel adds an extra pop of color.
Fueled by the Elite 670 movement, this watch also offers a 50-hour power reserve and water resistance up to 600 meters. Slap on a titanium bracelet, and you're ready to conquer the deep blue sea.
These timepieces are not for the faint-hearted; they're for those who dare to push the limits and explore the unknown depths. Get your hands on the DEFY Extreme Diver for £11,100 / $12,300 or the DEFY Revival for £7,400 / $8,200. Don't miss out on this sublime union of style, performance, and rugged durability.
