The rainbow, besides being a colorful and spectacular phenomenon, is also a symbol of energy and union. A kind of connection that is established between the sky and the earth, between the sun and the rain, between the divine and the earthly; in this case Zenith chose it as a way to connect luxury and sportsmanship.
Here the watchmaking world welcomes the extraordinary new creation that is the result of this conjunction: the Chronomaster Sport Rainbow. With a bezel embellished with an explosion of colors and precious materials, this energetic timepiece combines the Swiss company’s technical excellence with a design that immediately catches the eye.
With a 41mm-diameter 18K white gold case adorned with a sparkling palette of sapphires and diamonds, the Chronomaster Sport Rainbow represents a perfect marriage of mechanical precision and the art of goldsmithing. But let’s take a closer look at the “starry” house’s new jewel.
The design of the new Zenith Chronomaster Sport Rainbow
Zenith pushes the boundaries of traditional design, revisiting the sportiness of the Chronomaster Sport with an artistic twist. The bezel, a distinctive element of this model, is set with 40 baguette-cut sapphires, interspersed with 10 diamonds of the same cut. This combination not only gives an extraordinary visual effect, but also reflects the brand’s ability to master gem-setting.
The harmonious arrangement of rainbow colors is the result of a complex craftsmanship process: selecting gemstones with uniform cut, hue, and size is a feat that requires an expert eye and exceptional skill.
Below the bezel, the lacquered black dial intensifies the color contrast, letting the 12 rainbow sapphire hour markers shine. Zenith’s three iconic tricolor subdials, positioned at 3, 6 and 9 o’clock, add another level of depth to the design. The hands, rhodium-plated and faceted, are filled with Super-LumiNova, ensuring optimal legibility even in the dark. Attention to detail is palpable in every element, making this watch a true aesthetic masterpiece.
Complementing the refined design of the Chronomaster Sport Rainbow is an integrated 18K white gold bracelet, featuring brushed and polished links. In addition to providing exceptional comfort on the wrist, this bracelet accentuates the watch’s sophistication, turning it into a perfect accessory for any occasion…or at least it tries to, given the enormous opulence. The double safety folding clasp adds practicality without compromising elegance.
The caliber of the new Zenith Chronomaster Sport Rainbow
Behind the luxurious appearance of the new Zenith Chronomaster Sport Rainbow lies the watch’s beating heart: the legendary El Primero 3600 movement. This automatic caliber represents the pinnacle of chronometric precision, with a frequency of 36,000 vibrations per hour (5 Hz) and the unique ability to measure a 1/10th of a second.
The central chronograph hand makes a full revolution of the dial in just 10 seconds, offering outstanding legibility of measurements. With its 60-hour power reserve, the Chronomaster Sport Rainbow stands out not only for its style, but also for its reliability and high performance. The structure of the movement is visible through the sapphire crystal case back, revealing a blue column wheel and an open winding rotor decorated with the five-pointed star, the symbol of Zenith.
Conclusions
The introduction of this new timepiece represents a new chapter in the history of Zenith, a Maison that has been dedicated to redefining the boundaries of watchmaking for more than 150 years. Since the creation of the first high-frequency automatic chronograph caliber, El Primero, in 1969, Zenith has demonstrated an extraordinary ability to innovate while remaining true to its heritage.
The “starry” Maison continues to inspire generations of dreamers, turning each watch into a symbol of ambition and determination. With the Chronomaster Sport Rainbow, the Swiss brand invites everyone to “reach for their star,” combining technical excellence with unparalleled beauty.
