Zenith’s special Chronomaster El Primero dedicated to the Range Rover Velar

The launch of Land Rover’s latest mid-size SUV Range Rover Velar is being celebrated fittingly with a special timepiece from Zenith, titled ‘Chronomaster El Primero Range Rover Velar Special Edition’. A product of the partnership between Zenith and Land Rover, the Chronomaster was unveiled at the 2017 Geneva Motor Show and is representative of the success of two icons that were both born in the year 1969: the El Primero and the Range Rover. Priced at $8,700, the timepiece features a ceramised aluminum case of 42 mm and an elegant brushed grey dial with copper-toned details that bears copper color-plated and faceted hour-markers and hands, coated with SuperLuminova. The black rubber strap comes coated with black-toned perforated calfskin leather of the same high quality used on Range Rovers and secured by a triple folding clasp in DLC-treated titanium. The case houses the El Primero 400B automatic movement, fast beating at 36,000 vibrations per hour. Equipped with a special oscillating weight with “circular satin-brushed” motif” and adorned with Zenith and Range Rover logos, the movement offers a power reserve of minimum 50 hours.
