Chronomaster Revival Manufacture Edition
Like a time capsule secluded from an ever-changing world, the grenier (attic) of the Zenith Manufacture remains a special place where many secrets lie. Two years ago, in the year marking the 50th anniversary of the birth of El Primero, an unexpected discovery was made when Zenith dug into the grenier (attic) of its historic Manufacture: the prototype dial of the A386, featuring the signature tricolor dial, with chronograph counters in three different shades of blue rather than the usual blue and gray.
The 38mm stainless steel case with pump pushers is a faithful reproduction of the A386, which was created in 1969. The original blueprints were used to recreate the proportions of the iconic chronograph. The Chronomaster Revival Manufacture Edition is the final model to feature the original Revival case, making it both special and unique. Beating inside the case is the same movement used in 1969: the venerable El Primero high-frequency automatic chronograph with a column wheel.
The box that accompanies this exceptional watch is designed to resemble a book displayed on a bookshelf, with the cover featuring a blueprint of the Zenith Manufacture. The entire box arrives in special recyclable e-commerce packaging. The box also includes a replica of a vintage dial found in the attic, and a comic book featuring Charles Vermot by renowned Swiss cartoonist Cosey.
