Zenith's product designer talks about key launches for 2012.

Captain is a collection which embodies Zenith's fine watchmaking heritage. The Captain Tourbillon Rose Gold Mens Watch is the most impressive complication in the Captain range. It is also the only non-chronograph tourbillon that Zenith produce. The Captain Tourbillon is new for 2012 and is sure to become part of Zenith's esteemed legacy.
Swiss made El Primero 4041 S automatic tourbillon movement. Zenith's famous El Primero movement beats at 36,000 VpH and is made even more accurate by a tourbillon eliminating time variance when the watch is placed in different positions. The movement is constructed using 199 components with 25 jewels and has a minimum power reserve of 50 hours.
The tourbillon carriage is positioned at 11 o'clock on the silver dial. The carriage makes one turn per minute and in an interesting design feature Zenith has placed the small seconds hand on the outside of the carriage. The dial has a grained silver-toned chapter ring and polished velvet-finish minute track. The different finishes add to the readability of the watch.
Set within a 40mm 18-carat rose gold case which is covered by sapphire crystal glass on both the front and back. Secured by brown alligator strap with rose gold pin & buckle. Water resistant to 50 metres, 2 year manufacturer's warranty.

If your watch has a linked bracelet, we can adjust the size before it's sent so that it fits straight out of the box.
On placing your order you will receive a confirmation email - please reply to this email with your wrist measurement (in mm) and we'll make the necessary adjustments before despatch. Any links that have been removed will be sent with your watch. In some cases you may need additional links - in which case we'll get in touch as there may be a small additional cost as we'll need to source these from the manufacturer.
