Zenith El Primero striking 10th

Félix Baumgartner's achievement is what sparked my interest in Zenith, and more specifically in the El Primero. How could anyone not be impressed by this man who, in 2012, jumped from the stratosphere, reaching supersonic speed? And, the cherry on top, with a Zenith El Primero on his wrist! What struck me was seeing this watch, an object of precision and refinement, withstand extreme conditions: incredible temperature variations, phenomenal accelerations... It was concrete proof of the El Primero's robustness and reliability. More than just an ambassador, Félix Baumgartner was a true tester for Zenith. He pushed the watch to its limits, and it proved it was up to the task. This reinforced Zenith's image as a manufacturer capable of creating exceptional watches, both beautiful and high-performance. Seeing the footage of his jump, with the El Primero clearly visible on his wrist, I thought to myself: "This watch is more than just an object; it's a symbol of self-improvement, courage, and excellence." And that's what made me want to own a Zenith El Primero. It's like having a little piece of this incredible adventure on my wrist.
