For the avid watch lover
Zenith Chronomaster Sport in Rose Gold | S$30,800
Luxury watch connoisseurs often have very specific tastes in timepieces. Few, however, would say no to a Zenith. Specifically, the Chronomaster Sport, which is now the brand’s poster child for modern precision watchmaking.
As the only chronograph today displaying 1/10th of a second, this iconic model includes the signature tricolour sub-dials as well as a new black ceramic bezel. Fancy, but it’s what’s inside that’s the big highlight for watch lovers: Calibre El Primero 3600.
While that might provide all the reason you need to covet the Chronomaster Sport, why not raise the stakes a little by going for a rose gold model? Now that’ll be a treat, even for the most hard-nosed collectors.
