Zenith sponsors Louis Vuitton Classic

From the 6th till 7th September, seventy of the world's most beautiful motorcars dating from the turn of the century to the 1990s, devided into nine categories, provided a dazzling journey through time. Associated with this event for the third year running, Zenith Manufacture entertained more than 300 guests in a white cocoon interspaced with wenge hardwood columns, pebble paths and tall paintings: serene luxury that only befits the world of ZENITH.

“ZENITH became a House of luxury watchmaking today by rediscovering its past, finding its pride, and by imagining its future, created its present” declared Thierry Nataf, President of ZENITH International SA. In order to reward the “Automotive works of Art” symbolizing a journey through time, this year ZENITH naturally chose to present its most recent offering, a GRANDE CHRONOMASTER OPEN. Through its dial face opening onto the mythical El Primero, this watch offers an unforgettable journey into the centre of the movement and so transports the wearer into the heart of time. Its precise mechanism is as powerful as the engine of a car, the dial opening evokes an opened bonnet, the hands and figures recall the counters on a dashboard, and the design of the chronomaster case reminds us of the form of a beautiful body...
