Zenith Debuts The Defy 21 Ultraviolet Chronograph

When Zenith searched for a unique color to use for a new variant of the ultra high frequency Defy 21 1/100 second chronograph, then, violet was the natural choice. The resulting Zenith Defy 21 Ultraviolet is a striking showcase of the brand's cutting-edge mechanical watchmaking, wrapped up in a truly unmistakable package.For the Defy 21 Ultraviolet, Zenith uses the same 44 mm bead blasted titanium case as other members of the Defy 21 family.

The case boasts a solid 100 meters of water resistance, despite the sapphire display back.
