The Zenith El Primero is famous for two reasons. There’s some pretty nifty mechanical trickery going on with the new 10th of a second caliber, too, but we will get to this once the initial impression wears off, and is – in my opinion – thoroughly justified. And now, Zenith is taking that debt back with a black ceramic bezel twist that dawns a new era and a new name, in the Zenith Chronomaster Sport.
This all happened when I was merely 12 years old, in 1988. A modified version of the El Primero movement powered the Daytona for 12 years, and marked the first automatic Daytona models. Ok, here’s a fact: The Rolex Daytona owes a debt to the Zenith El Primero.
