During production, a blank dial is finished in a silvery-white color on its right half, then the black chronograph counters are milled while the rest of the dial is protected with a layer of transparent and colorless lacquer.Īpplying a third grey color to the darker side of the watch’s counters is another painstaking step that made it even harder to craft perfectly. Creating its unique dial was more of a challenge.
Like the former editions, the new model includes a tachymetric scale, three chronograph counters and the El Primero movement which has a frequency of 36,000 VpH and a healthy 50-hour power reserve. Then in 2020, the following year, the second special-edition timepiece was released with, you guessed it… a white dial sporting the same panda-style configuration shown on the newest release. Nearly 50 years later, Zenith produced the first Chronomaster Revival Lupin the Third watch using the A384 tonneau-shaped case depicted in that first episode along with its unusual black dial. Together they challenge or rob other nefarious groups it’s Jigen who is seen sporting two Zenith watches. He’s joined by Daisuke Jigen, a marksman, and Fujiko Mine, who plays Lupin’s love interest.
Created by the artist Monkey Punch, the show is centered around Arsène Lupin III, an internationally wanted thief. According to the watchmaker, the series creators were so inspired by the El Primero that they featured it in the first and final episodes of the debut season, which premiered in October 1971. Shortly after, in 1969, Zenith’s El Primero was introduced as the world’s first high-frequency automatic chronograph movement. Lupin the Third started out as a manga comics series in 1967.
