Zenith And Felipe Pantone’s Latest Watch Blends Monochrome With A Burst Of Color
Zenith and visual artist Felipe Pantone strengthened ties in their third collaboration.
The result is the new Defy Skyline Tourbillon Felipe Pantone whose monochromatic background merges with colorful details in rainbow tones.
On the outside, everything is maintained embracing the 41 mm octagonal stainless steel case with brushed finish on the surfaces and polished on the bevels, 12-sided bezel, sapphire crystal on both sides, crown at 3 o’clock with embedded star and 100m resistance to water.
The greyish sapphire crystal dial is engraved with concentric lines that start from the tourbillon and present a gradient effect that almost turns black towards the edges. The tourbillon at 6 o’clock features the artist’s lightning-bold arabesque which, like the hour markers and distorted hands, displays a wide range of colours.
It is through the rear sapphire crystal that we can observe the powerful Caliber El Primero 3630 automatic movement that operates at a high frequency of 5 Hz offering up to 60 hours of power reserve and whose skeletonized rotor in the shape of the brand’s star is also presented with a colourful PVD.
In addition to the integrated steel bracelet, the set includes a black rubber strap with a starry texture priced at CHF 60,000 and limited to 100 units.
