Zenith presents Defy Revival Shadow, the latest addition to the DEFY Revival collection. Modern and stealthy, this new timepiece takes inspiration from the very first DEFY from 1969.
Just like the Zenith Chronomaster Revival Shadow model released in 2020, the DEFY Revival Shadow creatively blends the historic model’s heritage with a contemporary accent through dark tones and muted textures.
Crafted in titanium, the highly angular DEFY Revival case with its fourteen-sided bezel is entirely microblasted for a matte finish, revealing the dark grey tone of titanium and enhancing the geometry of the singular and instantly recognizable case.
A first for ZENITH and its iconic “ladder” bracelet, the links and clasp are crafted in titanium, and finished with the same matte texture as the case. Light weight and ergonomic, the titanium bracelet is fitted on an updated folding clasp with a more comfortable and streamlined feel.
The DEFY Revival Shadow’s dial is matte black with a distinctly vintage look. The hands, filled with a cream-coloured Super-LumiNova pigment, as well as the applied square hour markers with horizontal grooves are polished and finished in rhodium for optimum legibility.
Visible through the sapphire display back, the automatic Elite 670 manufacture movement offers a power reserve of 50 hours. Finally, the watch has an impressive water-resistance of 30ATM (300 metres).
The DEFY Revival Shadow is available from ZENITH physical and online boutiques as well as authorized retailers around the world.
