With a vision of creating the world’s first automatic chronograph, Zenith in 1969 had launched the birth of the El Primero - the first ultra-thin, high-frequency integrated automatic chronograph caliber. This vision led Zenith to become the pioneer in its field while also becoming a movement supplier for certain major brands including Rolex.
The present example is in a lovely original condition with a sharp case and clean display of the tourbillon on the dial with a date ring around it.
