Exclusivity at its finest - the high-quality watch models of the Zenith Elite collection

The Zenith watch manufacturer in Le Locle, Switzerland, is known for luxury watches in the premium segment. It was founded in 1865 by Georges Favre-Jacot under the name "Fabrique des Billodes" and became the joint-stock company "Fabrique des Montres Zenith" in 1911. The Zenith Elite collection is named after the ultra-flat automatic movement "Elite" that was launched in 1994 and was named "Movement of the Year" by the trade press due to its extremely flat dimensions and robust reliability. All models in the Zenith Elite series are classically elegant dress watches in an ultra-flat case. The top models in the series also have a tourbillon. The Zenith Elite collection also includes decorative ladies' watches, some made of gold and also with a moon phase display and diamond setting. A highlight of these watches is the "Elite Lady Moonphase" model, which is only 33 mm in size.

Some distinctive features of the Zenith Elite collection

The models in the Zenith Elite series are further developments of the automatic movement launched in 1994 and now feature contemporary features. The new 6150 caliber of the super-flat watches has a power reserve of 100 hours thanks to its two barrels. Depending on the model, the case is made of stainless steel or rose gold and some versions are pressure-resistant up to 5 bar (50 m). In addition to the standard size of 42 mm, there are also smaller models measuring 39 mm. The new Zenith Elite is also modular in design and can therefore be expanded with additional functions.
