MeisterSinger – Classic Plus Perigraph Mellow Yellow Edition

MeisterSingerClassic Plus Perigraph Mellow Yellow Limited Edition 2021

 It all began with a single hand

MeisterSinger watches show the time with just one single hand. The same is also true of the new model, the Perigraph “Mellow Yellow”. Although the watch is equipped with an additional hand, its only function is to display the date in the middle of the dial.

With its open date disk, the Perigraph has long since become a classic model in the MeisterSinger collection. The beautifully balanced date ring rotates freely around the center of the dial. A small arrow at 12 o’clock points to the current date, which advances one step each day at midnight. This analog representation of the date corresponds to the circular time display and provides just as much of an overview.

As a master of diversity, in this version the Perigraph appears in a bold mellow yellow. The steel-blue dial contrasts stunningly with the bold yellow hue, red accents complete the play of colors.

Its stainless steel case is 43 millimeters in diameter, water-resistant up to 5 bar, and the dial is covered by a domed sapphire glass. The Swiss automatic movement, with a rotor that supplies the watch with a 38-hour power reserve, can be viewed through the sixfold screwed glass exhibition back. The glass proudly reflects the uniqueness of this model since it states the number of pieces produced: one of 200 worldwide.

ZENITH – EL PRIMERO Chronomaster Revival “Safari”

ZENITH – EL PRIMERO Chronomaster Revival Safari” - 2021

THE EL PRIMERO STEPS INTO THE WILD SIDE WITH THE
CHRONOMASTER REVIVAL SAFARI

When the designers at Zenith asked themselves what an El Primero from 1969 inspired by the great outdoors would look like, they imagined something entirely different from what the Manufacture had produced in over 50 years since the famed calibre’s introduction; something that evoked the vivid colours and textures found on wild terrains with the same utility and ergonomics as its most prized chronographs. The result is the Chronomaster Revival Safari, a lush reinterpretation of a signature vintage chronograph icon.

The geometry and overall proportions of this fresh and modern chronograph are identical to those of the historical A384, but the look and feel of the case couldn’t be more different. Instead of the traditionally finished stainless steel in a mix of satin-brushed and polished surfaces, the Safari is crafted in titanium that’s lighter yet harder than steel. The entire case including the star-emblazoned crown and pump-style pushers are fashioned in an intriguingly muted finish that’s entirely microblasted to bring out the dark nuances of titanium by absorbing light rather than reflecting it.

Exhibiting tones ranging from deep olive-green to cooler spruce tones, the dial of the Chronomaster Revival Safari is a deep matte green with contrasting black registers and tachymeter scale, with a touch of vintage inspiration with its warm beige-coloured SuperLumiNova on the applied baton markers and hands. The white on green date wheel is perfectly camouflaged with the rest of the dial; legible when you need it but never distracting. The rubber and cordura-effect strap takes on the same khaki-green tone as the dial, and is fixed to a matte microblasted titanium pin buckle.

Powering this retro-inspired but resolutely modern and edgy chronograph is the El Primero automatic high-frequency chronograph calibre, visible through the display back. In production since 1969 and gradually evolved throughout the years, this is the closest iteration to the original version of the seminal chronograph movement.
