The focus of the four watch brands exhibiting at the LVMH Watch Week in Dubai was more on aesthetic tweaks to pre-existing lines rather than on fresh new collections or innovative technology – this will come in May, at Baselworld 2020. Zenith’s Elite Classic range, the dress watch representative of the brand, was taken to […]
Earlier this week, French luxury powerhouse LVMH staged its first Watch Week in Dubai to showcase the novelties of its four brands, Bvlgari, Hublot, Zenith and TAG Heuer (even though the latter had no new watches on display), which we’ve covered on MONOCHROME. But to end this rather intense week, let’s take a look at […]
LVMH Watch Week kicked off this week in Dubai with fresh releases from its four leading watchmaking brands. Among the novelties presented by Zenith is an adaptation of its iconic Type 20 pilot’s watch.

While the main novelty for Zenith at the 2020 LVMH Watch Week will be the reintroduction of the Elite collection (more on that soon), there will be some more watches introduced by the brand, including several limited editions based on existing models. Part of the show is a rather good-looking, modern and stealth version of […]

It is a year I would have loved to live: this was the year of the legendary music festival Woodstock; 1969 witnessed the first flight of the supersonic plane Concorde; the Rolling Stones recorded Let It Bleed; the Beatles gave the world Abbey Road; and Easy Rider and Once […]
As you’ve probably seen already, our 3 previous buying guides have been focusing on a highly discussed topic; the most sought after watches produced by Rolex, Patek Philippe and Audemars Piguet – which basically goes down to talking about the Daytona, the GMT-Master, the Nautilus and the Royal Oak.

As you’ve probably seen already, our three previous buying guides focused on a highly discussed topic; the most sought-after watches produced by Rolex, Patek Philippe and Audemars Piguet – which basically boils down to talking about the Daytona, the GMT-Master, the Nautilus and the Royal Oak. Our goal was never to promote this speculative market […]
It’s been a busy year for Zenith as it celebrates the 50th anniversary of its legendary El Primero high-frequency automatic chronograph movement.
