ZENITH EL PRIMERO STRIKING 10TH — LIMITED EDITION OF 1,969 PIECES
Zenith Reference: 03.2041.4052/69.R580
Year: 2022 | Perfect condition | FULL SET
LIMITED EDITION OF ONLY 1,969 PIECES WORLDWIDE
AN EXCEPTIONAL, RARE, AND NUMBERED PIECE OF WATCHMAKING.
Atelier N.A TIMEKEEPING is pleased to offer this exceptional Zenith El Primero Striking 10th, a true collector's piece from a limited edition of only 1,969 pieces worldwide.
A confidential series, now discontinued, which pays tribute to the year 1969, the birth year of the legendary El Primero calibre, one of the most iconic automatic chronograph movements in horological history.
Far more than a simple chronograph, this Striking 10th represents a major technical achievement: the mechanical display of tenths of a second, made possible by its high-frequency movement.
A rare piece, intended for collectors and enthusiasts of fine watchmaking.
THE MYTHICAL EL PRIMERO — EXCEPTIONAL MECHANICS
At the heart of this limited edition beats the Zenith El Primero 4052 B manufacture calibre, a high-frequency automatic movement with 36,000 vibrations per hour (5 Hz).
What makes it special?
Unlike a traditional chronograph, whose central hand makes one revolution in 60 seconds, the Striking 10th completes one full revolution of the dial in just 10 seconds.
This architecture allows for a direct and precise reading of tenths of a second, a particularly remarkable complication in the world of mechanical chronographs.
Composed of 326 components and 31 jewels, this movement showcases the full expertise of the Zenith manufacture.
AN ICONIC TRICOLOUR CONFIGURATION
The watch features a superb sunray silver dial, enhanced by the three characteristic El Primero sub-dials in shades of anthracite grey and blue.
The red central chronograph hand adds a sporty and instantly recognisable touch.
Its 42 mm steel case is paired here with a black perforated Rubber strap with a folding clasp, offering an ideal balance of sporty character, elegance, and comfort.
The transparent sapphire case back allows you to admire the architecture and finishing of its manufacture movement.
A 2022 PIECE IN PERFECT CONDITION
We are offering this 2022 piece in exceptional condition.
The watch comes with its original FULL SET, including its box and Zenith documents.
A particularly interesting opportunity for collectors seeking this historic limited edition, in a Rubber configuration with a folding clasp and in excellent presentation condition.
