You can view the El Primero at work through the opening between nine and 12 o'clock. Zenith has something for women in this collection, too: The Zenith El Primero Chronomaster Open Lady 38.00 is a refined, elegant watch featuring diamonds on the oval bezel and a mother-of-pearl dial.

The skeletonized movement combines a moon phase and day/night display via two stacked discs which simultaneously display the moon phase and time of day. If you prefer a version with a moon phase and date display, then consider the El Primero Chronomaster Open Grande Date. Powered by the El Primero 400 caliber, this model has a small seconds at nine o'clock, a 12-hour counter at six o'clock, and a 30-minute counter at three o'clock. If you prefer a similar version with a smaller case and closed dial, then you should take a look at the El Primero Chronomaster 38.00 (03.2150.400/69.C713). The Super-LumiNova-coated hands and indices guarantee you can easily read the watch at night as well. A rose gold case ups the price to 14,000 euros. This is in part due to the manufacturer's pricing policy, which insists on fairly pricing their high-quality timepieces. Models in this series are comparatively affordable when you consider their quality. Many models also have a tachymeter scale, which is an attractive extra feature. For example, the series includes chronographs with a tourbillon or moon phase display. The Zenith El Primero Chronomaster series excels when it comes to complications. The sizes of the timepieces range between 38 and 45 mm, with the bigger versions being more suitable for larger wrists. ![]() There is also a wide variety of case materials used: You have the choice between rose gold, stainless steel, and durable ceramic. Classic variants with the original case from 1969 are grouped together with models featuring almost completely skeletonized dials, which give you a view of the movement at work. ![]() The series, first introduced in 1994, is known for its diversity of designs. It has a balance frequency of 36,000 A/h (5 Hz) and allows you to measure 1/10th of a second. After all, there's a reason the El Primero has a reputation of being Zenith's most powerful caliber. Today, the movement is still considered ultra-precise. Other manufacturers took advantage of this caliber: Rolex modified it to their needs, renaming it Caliber 4030, and used it in the Daytona. It made history as the first integrated, automatic chronograph caliber. The movement was first introduced in 1969, though its development began in 1962. The Zenith El Primero Chronomaster collection is comprised of many timepieces with different designs, all tied together by their common use of the famous El Primero caliber. ![]()
