Swiss luxury watch brand zenith is the Official Timekeeper and Founding Partner of Extreme E, which is committed to advancing the generalization of electric vehicles and the decarbonization of transportation.
Therefore, Zenith was inspired by this and presented the DEFY Extreme E “Energy X Prix”a limited edition of 20 watches that combines carbon fiber and titanium with striking purple details that represent the lightning that lights up the sky during a storm.
In tune with the purpose of Extreme E, the Swiss brand incorporates recycled and upcycled elements from the championship on the strap and packaging in this edition.
It is also the world’s lightest and most robust high-frequency automatic 100th-of-a-second chronograph. The DEFY Extreme E “Energy X Prix” was tested on the off-road circuits of the electric rally and was made from lightweight, durable and visually striking carbon fibre. Its angular geometry stands out thanks to the contrast between the microblasted titanium pushpiece protectors and the twelve-sided bezel.
Features a rubber strap made from recycled tire materials which were used in the races of the first season. It also comes with two additional black rubber and black velcro straps that can be easily interchanged.
The DEFY Extreme E “Energy X Prix” is delivered in a robust waterproof and shock resistant box; the finish of the lid of this box was made with recycled tires, while the lining of the plate was made with parts of the canvas used in the Extreme E races.
The 20 units of this collection will be available in physical boutiques and in the Zenith online store.
