9 600 €
The Zenith Chronomaster Revival El Primero A384 Tropical 03.A384.400/69.M384 was launched in 2026, offering a contemporary take on the classic A384 from 1969, one of the first models equipped with the renowned El Primero movement. This watch showcases the same 37mm tonneau-shaped case, which remains faithful to the aesthetics of the original while also featuring a dial inspired by the warm tones of aged tropical dials.
Crafted from stainless steel, the case maintains the compact format typical of the Revival line, achieving a water resistance of up to 5 ATM. Accentuating the design are pump pushers, along with a blend of brushed and polished surfaces that harken back to the model's debut. The dial presents a white lacquered background complemented by chocolate-toned subdials arranged in a panda-style layout. Matching tones are used for the tachymeter scale, while the rhodium-plated hour markers and hands, filled with an old-radium hue of Super-LumiNova, offer clear legibility, enhanced by a striking red chronograph hand. Functional aspects include a running seconds subdial at 9 o'clock, a 30-minute counter at 3 o'clock, a 12-hour counter at 6 o'clock, and a date display at 4:30.
At its heart lies the Zenith El Primero 400, a self-winding column-wheel chronograph movement that operates at a high frequency of 36,000 vibrations per hour and boasts a 50-hour power reserve with 278 components. The sapphire case back showcases the intricate movement, featuring a five-pointed star-shaped openworked rotor and an oscillating weight adorned with the Côtes de Genève pattern. Completing the watch is the stainless steel ladder bracelet, a lightweight and flexible design first created by Gay Frères in 1969, which has become a hallmark of the A384 and its modern revivals.
