Since its establishment in 1865, ZENITH has ceaselessly sought to become a leader in precision and performance. “Master of Chronographs” is not a title, but an aspiration to always aim higher and reach further, as well as a testament to the manufacture’s illustrious past and its countless achievements that contributed to the advancement of mechanical chronographs. ZENITH prides itself on being Switzerland’s first vertically integrated watch manufacture. Founded in 1865 by Georges Favre-Jacot, its objective is to reach the pinnacle of precision and innovation by bringing together all the watchmaking knowledge, skills and artisanal crafts required to build a watch from start to finish under one roof.
