Rather than leaning entirely on the vintage-inspired chronographs for which the manufacture was already well known, Zenith used the Defy family to explore lightweight materials, integrated-bracelet architecture, and a much more contemporary design language. The Skeleton is arguably where that idea comes together best.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eInstead of placing a conventional dial over the movement, Zenith builds the openworked display around its star motif. The mechanics become part of what you see every time you check the time, with additional depth revealed through the exhibition caseback. There is plenty happening visually, but the prominent hands and hour markers keep the watch surprisingly usable.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eThe titanium construction is equally important to the experience. A 41 millimeter integrated sports watch has substantial wrist presence, but titanium keeps the Defy noticeably lighter than its dimensions suggest. The combination of brushed and polished surfaces then gives the angular case and bracelet definition without relying on precious metal or a highly decorative conventional dial.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eInside is Zenith's Elite 670 SK, the openworked adaptation of the manufacture's longstanding Elite automatic movement. That's an important distinction: this isn't an El Primero chronograph repurposed as a three-hander. The Elite is a separate movement family, adapted here specifically to complement the skeleton architecture of the Defy Classic.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eThat leaves the watch occupying an interesting position on the secondary market. It's an integrated-bracelet sports watch from a genuine Swiss manufacture, constructed predominantly from titanium, with a purpose-designed openworked presentation and a movement that becomes part of the visual experience.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eFor the collector who likes modern engineering and wants something more interesting than another conventional dial on a steel bracelet, the Defy Classic Skeleton offers a lot to explore without becoming difficult to wear.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"MsoNormal\" align=\"center\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003chr size=\"2\" width=\"100%\" align=\"center\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eFull Specifications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003e• Reference Number: 95.9000.670\/78.M9000\u003cbr\u003e• Model: Defy Classic Skeleton\u003cbr\u003e• Original MSRP: $7,900\u003cbr\u003e• Movement: Zenith Elite 670 SK automatic\u003cbr\u003e• Case Material: Titanium\u003cbr\u003e• Case Size: 41 millimeter\u003cbr\u003e• Water Resistance: 100 meters\u003cbr\u003e• Power Reserve: Approximately 50 hours\u003cbr\u003e• Dial: Skeleton \/ openworked\u003cbr\u003e• Card Date: 2022\u003cbr\u003e• Bracelet: Zenith integrated titanium bracelet\u003cbr\u003e• Clasp: Steel folding clasp\u003cbr\u003e• Included Links: Five removable links\u003cbr\u003e• Lug Width: 22 millimeter\u003cbr\u003e• Location: Fort Worth, Texas\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"MsoNormal\" align=\"center\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003chr size=\"2\" width=\"100%\" align=\"center\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eThe Arieli Collection Difference\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eEvery watch we offer is carefully inspected and accurately represented, with clear communication and a collector-first approach from start to finish.
