Founded in Le Locle, Switzerland in 1865 by Georges Favre-Jacot, this avant garde watch manufacturer has produced fine watch movements not only for its own high quality Zenith timepieces but for some of the finest names in the luxury Swiss watch industry.
It is said that one evening, after completing work on a new movement, Georges Favre-Jacot went outside, gazed into the night sky, and thought of the name Zenith, meaning the highest point in the universe for which he called his new movement and watch manufacture. A single, bold star was adopted as the symbol of Zenith watches.
From the end of the 19th and into the 20th century, Zenith watches gained an enviable reputation for quality and accuracy, winning more than 1565 watch industry awards. But it was not until 1969 that Zenith introduced the watch movement which has become synonymous with the Zenith name and is a standard for excellence in watchmaking - the El Primero.
Ironically, as Zenith introduced the El Primero watch movement, another innovation would almost destroy traditional Swiss watch making - the quartz watch. Accurate, easily mass produced and inexpensive, the quartz watch seemed to mark the end of the mechanical watch. Swiss watch brands like Seiko Watches began to churn out millions of inexpensive, good quality quartz watches. Many luxury watch manufacturers ceased to exist during this period, but Zenith survived by supplying their El Primero movement to other luxury watch manufacturers for use in their own watches.
The late 1980’s marked a resurgence and renewed appreciation for the mechanical watch. Zenith introduced its Elite movement in 1994. The Zenith Elite movement like the El Primero is produced in-house by Zenith, thus maintaining its status as a true watch manufacturer, a special status awarded to the few luxury Swiss watch companies that produce their own movements. The Elite movement is a much thinner movement than the El Primero. Not a chronograph movement like El Primero, the Elite movement allows Zenith to produce watches with sleeker profiles that still maintain Zenith's exacting standards.
