After drawing inspiration from nature, Zenith recently launched a timepiece with a green, jungle-like look. The Zenith Defy Extreme Jungle is the last addition to a series of three watches inspired by harsh environments—previous models were based on glacier and desert environments.

Like its counterparts, this watch is constructed from durable materials. The casing features different types of natural stones, thanks to Zenith’s high-quality watchmaking workmanship and technical mastery.

While the casing is manufactured from titanium, it is lightweight and can sit perfectly on the wrist. Since the bezel and pushers are made from tiger’s eye quartz, the casing looks very stylish and modern. Featuring multiple color striations, the tiger’s eye quartz gives the watch a unique mystique-like look that accentuates the jungle theme.

Speaking of which, the dial has a beautiful jungle green color complemented by a brown shade.

Designed to offer a high-quality horological experience, the Zenith Defy Extreme Jungle has three subdials: a chronograph power-reserve indication, a 60-second counter, and a 30-minute counter.

It also draws power from the El Primero 9004 caliber, capable of measuring up to 1/100th of a second for precision and accuracy.

Even though Zenith focused on aesthetics during the design phase, this watch can reach depths of about 200 meters.

It is equipped with an interchangeable mechanism for switching straps, offering multiple styling options. The watch features a green strap that blends smoothly with the dial, but it can be easily swapped.

As a limited edition watch, only 50 pieces were rolled out into the market, and each retails at $30,000.

Accutron has released a new timepiece based on one of its most iconic watches, the original 1962 Accutron Astronaut. A modern take on the watch, this new offering still embodies a certain spirit from the ‘60s. In fact, it reflects everything that went down during the space race era, when space technology was in its infancy.

The 1962 piece was designed for astronauts and pilots in the U.S. space program, with the dial and layout similar to those in the X-15 cockpits they flew. Other missions the original Astronaut boarded included the sr-71 blackbird and the Gemini missions. The watch also enjoyed popularity in the consumer market, with enthusiasts also picked it up due to its high-quality chronograph features. It was equipped with a 214HN sub-calibre—one of the most effective Accutron watch movements.

The fluted bezel is a retro design that was quite popular in Geneva timepieces, and Frederique Constant has brought it back to life with this new watch. It also has classical finishes that are quite stylish.
