Swiss watchmaker, Zenith, has recently unveiled its exclusive Defy El Primero 21 Dubai Mall Edition timepiece, dedicated to its Dubai Mall boutique. The boutique is the first stop in a traveling pop-up exhibition of a selection of current Haute Horlogerie pieces as well as a selection of rare and sought-after pieces from the past decade. Coinciding with this special exhibition, Zenith is launching this exclusive Defy El Primero 21 Edition.
For this exclusive boutique edition of the 44mm Defy El Primero 21, Zenith selected tones of green in which to dress the watch. Aptly, green is considered to be the color of luck, fertility, and wealth throughout the Middle East. Crafted in a light and robust titanium case, the Defy 21 Dubai Mall Edition features a green dial with white, red, and black accents. The chronograph movement, visible through the partially open dial, is also finished in a metallic green tone, which is a first for Zenith. Unlike the regular DEFY 21 that has open chronograph counters, the Defy 21 Dubai Mall Edition has closed counters, appearing as if floating above the open dial and movement. A khaki green Cordura-effect rubber strap completes the green theme of this special Defy 21. The watch also comes with a textured black rubber strap. The Haute Horlogerie exhibition will remain in Dubai for a few months, before moving to other Zenith boutiques around the world, including Singapore and Tokyo.
