In other words, it straddles a line of sorts, so it’s interesting to see the result when a collaborator like Hodinkee gets involved in the design. The movement gives the Chronomaster Original the feel of something more than a heritage piece, but the classic styling separates it nicely from the more adventurous and avant-garde watches in Zenith’s Defy line, and elsewhere in the catalog.

Importantly, it also houses Zenith’s next generation El Primero Automatic Caliber 3600, an impressive modern chronograph movement capable of timing events to the tenth of a second thanks to a central hand that makes a full rotation around the dial in just ten seconds. It has a classic case shape reminiscent of the A386, the original Original from 1969, and lends itself to a variety of interesting color configurations. Zenith of course has a veritable army of chronographs in their catalog, but the Chronomaster Original can be seen as something of a skeleton key to the rest of them. Hodinkee and Zenith have teamed up for the second time to create a limited edition version of one of our favorite recent releases, the Chronomaster Original.
