The 2022 gold Chronomaster Sport expanded the appeal of the series that won the chronograph watch prize at the 2021 GPHGsĬlick here to know the El Primero story and why it’s one of the most celebrated watch movements The 2021 edition in steel won the 2021 Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève in the chronograph category and, last year, the brand added all-gold and two-tone models of the Chronomaster Sport to the series.

And the Chronomaster Sport, which they first launched early in 2021, runs on a descendant of that very calibre. They were, after all, the ones who made the first ever integrated automatic chronograph movement-the El Primero. And we know they have enough historical significance to claim prominent presence in the segment. So it seemed only natural that Zenith would finally take a leap into this segment in a bigger way than they have before.

Now there are already a number of watches in this segment, and each one, arguably, is an icon for its manufacturer, for a number of reasons that include historical significance. It’s usually robust enough to be worn every day, and it’s hopefully automatic and accurate enough to be relied on. It’s something you can literally wear with jeans as well as a suit. The archetypal metallic sport chronograph has, in fact, become a classic, even though it’s not classical in its appeal. Traditionally meant literally for sports such as motor racing, the steel sport chronograph has, over the decades, transcended its original purpose, quite like diver’s or pilot’s watches. A watch that’s sturdy and reliable, and one that goes with pretty much anything you wear, is precisely what you want your everyday watch to be.
