Low-key
It has been 72 years since the evergreen jazz standard Diamonds Are A Girl’s Best Friend was first released. Everyone knows this song, but it turns out that despite the huge improvement in today’s perception of women, diamonds are still girls’ best friends.
This was evident in the first physical “Meet the Dreamers” event in Madrid, where guests were invited to discover a group of accomplished and outspoken women called ZENITH DREAMHERS.
To commemorate this moment, Zenith has launched two Chronomaster Original diamond watches, equipped with a multi-color mother-of-pearl dial or a taupe three-color dial.
Obviously, as far as ladies like sparkling stones, nothing has changed. The new Chronomaster Original diamond watch features an iconic three-color dial that is absolutely eye-catching.
38 mm-the standard size of Zenith Chronomaster-this watch is perfect for women who like large watches, or men who like gorgeous diamond-encrusted timepieces.
Both models use a stainless steel case. The first version uses a three-color dial made entirely of mother-of-pearl, instead of the traditional gray and blue chronograph dial. The dial is decorated with four different colors of mother-of-pearl; the dial is decorated with white mother-of-pearl, the chronograph dial uses two shades of blue, and the constant second hand uses gray mother-of-pearl.
The second version uses three taupe tones in the iconic three-color layout of the satin white dial.
For true glitter, just look at the lugs. Still adhering to the rimless structure of Chronomaster Original, 56 small diamonds are cleverly mounted on all four lugs, adding a lot of pop and sparkle when worn. Both dials are inlaid with 9 diamonds as hour markers, which also makes time more precious.
Under the gleaming appearance, Zenith Chronomaster Original is still a master achievement in timekeeping. This watch has a 60-hour power reserve and is powered by the most respected latest generation El Primero 3600 at a frequency of 5Hz (36’000 VpH). Its performance has been improved, and it can provide 1/10 second timing function.
Both versions of Chronomaster Original are equipped with light blue or taupe soft calfskin straps with the same color stitching to match the color of their respective dials.
Founded in 2020, ZENITH DREAMHERS is a platform for independent and inspirational women from all walks of life. It inspires women to share their voices and passions with like-minded women around the world.

On the agenda is the need to move towards more inclusiveness and equal rights. The Zenith DREAMHERS who participated in the first physical event via social media live broadcast included contemporary artist Teresa Juevas, chef Amandine Chaignot, professional ballerina Precious Adams, fashion retail pioneer Ghizlan Guenez, EXTREME E race driver Christine Giampaoli Zonca, skincare entrepreneur Laura Noltemeyer and former Miss Swiss and medical expert Laetitia Guarino.
The watch world is still mainly a male-dominated field, but this incident is also a subtle and earth-shaking change for Zenith. DREAMHERS also admired the first ever series DEFY Midnight that is completely oriented towards women in Zenith. The most popular feature of this series is the quick strap change mechanism. It allows the wearer to quickly switch between the included steel bracelet and rubber or fabric strap without tools.
