As José María Lopez, vice president of development at Habanos, declared: “ We have always said that our relationship with Zenith is marked by the emotion that unites our brands, and we are proud to witness the series of unique watches that are the result of the alliance of these two icons of luxury. ” For his part, Julien Tornare, the young and full of energy president of Zenith, confided his ” immense pleasure of returning to Havana with our dear friends at Habanos for a new chapter in our partnership, which is all about celebrating the finer pleasures in life. Today, the partnership with Romeo y Julieta, another historic cigar house belonging to the Habanos group, is a logical continuation. Source of inspiration for the 2019 edition dial, the leaves are dried in the casa de tabacco from 25 to 50 days depending on whether they are intended to be cigars’ filler Also inspired by Trinidad, the watches feature details pertaining to the cigar aesthetic, sporting a tan-brown dial with a tobacco leaf pattern and a calfskin strap in the same amber hue embellished with the Trinidad logo. With a 45 mm diameter case in pink, yellow, or white gold and an oversized crown typical of the line, they are limited to fifty pieces. This trio of chronographs is a variation of the atypical vintage “Pilot” watch, recalling the navigation instruments Zenith manufactured in the early days of aviation. In 2019, the Swiss manufacture presented three original variations of the Pilot Type 20 Chronograph Trinidad Edition, to celebrate the half-century of Trinidad – another havanas entity of the Cuban House, named after a rich, aromatic and slightly full-bodied type of cigar. The partnership gave birth to different interpretations of the Pilot Type 20 chrono, a Cohiba edition in bronze in 2018 then a Trinidad version with a brown tobacco-leaf effect dial the following year After this came the El Primero Legend of Cohiba chrono in pink gold, equipped with a tricompax-date movement (read our article El Primero “Legend of Cohiba” : Time unites Twin Traditions of production and Expertise), then followed in 2018 by the Pilot Type 20 Chronograph Cohiba Maduro 5 Edition in bronze. Called El Primero Chronomaster 1969 Cohiba Edition, 50 pieces of this anniversary watch were proposed to mark Cohiba’s 50th anniversary.
Inspired by Cohiba – a tobacco found at Habanos and considered one of the most prestigious in the world by connoisseurs – a beautiful piece thus enriched the Zenith collections in 2016. After the special Legend of Cohiba edition, the Zenith manufacture once again aserts its attachment to the volutes of Cuba with two Elite Moonphase “Romeo y Julieta” models Zenith and Habanos unveiled the El Primero Legend of Cohiba model at the end of 2016 So they sometimes spend hours smoking the best cigars – from Havana of course – slowly swirling a spirit worthy of the name – cognac, whiskey, rum … – in a glass that will gradually warm up under the head of their palm. Many watch collectors are also epicureans.
