    Watches, it hardly needs to be said, need to be set to be of any use; and to be of any use, they must be set to a time standard that is trustworthy. This is something we scarcely think about today – someone is taking care of it; the Internet is taking care of it or atomic clocks are taking care of it or the US Naval Observatory is taking care of it. For most of the history of watchmaking, however, those resources weren’t available.

    The 1950s were a watershed decade for dive watches, if you’ll forgive the pun. Within a few years of each other, three different companies released three of the most enduring classics of the modern dive watch idiom: the Rolex Submariner, the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms, and the Omega Seamaster 300. All had certain essential features in common – excellent visibility, rotating timing bezels, good water resistance – and each has gone on to become an icon for the company that made it. In 1957, another classic of the era debuted: the Breitling Superocean, which was released in both chronograph and non-chronograph versions.

     

     

    Zenith celebrated the 50th anniversary of its groundbreaking El Primero chronograph movement in 2019 with a series of watch releases that paid tribute to the original vintage examples in laser-accurate fashion. As part of the automatic chronograph movement’s golden jubilee, Zenith rolled out a series of “El Primero Revival” watches which resurrected the cases found on the first batch of watches to feature the caliber in 1969, including the rounded profile of the ref. A386 and the tonneau shape of the ref. A384.
