In a first for Zenith, the manufacture has cladded its 1/100th of a second chronograph in a green ceramic armour for the Defy 21 Urban Jungle. Highly scratch-resistant and intensely coloured, the Urban Jungle’s khaki green ceramic case is finished entirely with matte surface, flying under the radar while still standing out to its wearer.
