3600 that boasts a lightning seconds hand. Looking like yet another remake on the surface – the design is almost a dead ringer for the A386 of 1969 – the retro styling of the new Chronomaster Original belies the latest-generation El Primero, the all-new cal. Though Zenith celebrated the 50th anniversary of its iconic chronograph movement in 2019, it took a while longer for the long-awaited successor to the original El Primero. Offering a central display of the hours and minutes, small seconds at 9 o’clock, chronograph with central chronograph hand, 12-hour counter 6 six o’clock, and 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock, a tachymeter scale and date indication between 4 and 5 o’clock, the Chronomaster Revival Manufacture Edition comes with a blue alligator leather strap featuring a protective rubber lining and stainless steel pin buckle.Share Facebook Linkedin Twitter Weibo Instagram Beating within it at a rate of 36,000 VpH (5 Hz) and with a 50-hour power reserve, is the same movement it would have had had it been made in 1969: the venerable El Primero high-frequency 400 automatic chronograph with column wheel. What makes this edition significant and even more unique is that it represents the final version of the A386 available with the original “Revival” case. The stainless steel case with pump-style pushers is an exact reproduction of the 1969 A386, using the blueprints of the original to preserve the proportions of the iconic chronograph. Inspired by never-released vintage prototypes found in the attic of the Manufacture, the Chronomaster Revival Manufacture Edition features a white-lacquered dial with three counters in three shades of blue, reflecting a previously unknown prototype face from the company archives.
