Zenith celebrates 160th anniversary in 2025 #WatchesandWonders2025

4 April 2025

For over 160 years, Zenith has been at the forefront of horological innovation, continuously shaping the landscape of fine watchmaking. Founded in 1865 by Georges Favre-Jacot, the Swiss Maison has built a rich legacy of pioneering achievements, blending timeless craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology. Zenith’s commitment to precision and artistry has earned it a revered place in the world of luxury watches.

A defining moment in Zenith’s history came in 1969 with the introduction of the El Primero, the world’s first high-frequency automatic chronograph movement, a revolutionary achievement that set the standard for chronograph design and remains a hallmark of the brand today. Zenith's technical prowess extends beyond chronographs, with numerous other iconic timepieces such as the Defy Skyline and the PILOT collection, further demonstrating the brand's mastery of complex movements and modern design.

Throughout its history, Zenith has remained dedicated to pushing the boundaries of watchmaking, creating watches that are not only mechanically sophisticated but also beautifully crafted. From its early innovations to its cutting-edge timepieces today, Zenith continues to honor its legacy while staying ahead of the curve, making it a true pioneer in the world of horology.
