INTRODUCED LAST YEAR as Zenith's latest salvo in the highly competitive integrated bracelet segment, the Defy Skyline collection set a new benchmark for time-only models in that market category by basing its introductory calibre on the vaunted high-frequency El Primero movement. For LVMH watch week 2023, the Le Locle brand is building upon that foundational pillar with a more structured, open-worked model of the inaugural Defy Skyline.
Still featuring that iconic 1/10th of a second indicator, the new Defy Skyline Skeleton stands out with its star-shaped open dial and incredible symmetry. It calls to mind yet another Zenith novelty sharing similar aesthetics, a deep-diving (300 to 600 metres) model with an angular octagonal case and a crazy tetradecagonal bezel dubbed 'Defy' from 1969.
Nicknamed 'vault', this beast of a watch was not only robust and fitted with a patented suspension system and flexible elastic shock-absorbing rings but also with a radically edgy architecture.
