Life, liberty, and the pursuit

As the United States marks its 250th anniversary, Zenith unveils the Chronomaster Revival Liberty II, a special edition that continues a story shaped by a longstanding dialogue between the Manufacture and the American spirit. Following the success of the first Chronomaster Revival Liberty, a North America-exclusive release inspired by the bold aesthetic codes of the late 1960s, this new chapter deepens the narrative with a more symbolic and commemorative approach. More than a tribute piece, Liberty II draws on a deeper historical connection, one that traces back to the visionary mindset of founder Georges Favre-Jacot. After a journey to the United States, he found inspiration in the country’s emerging industrial model, shaping his ambition to establish the first fully integrated watch Manufacture in Switzerland. This new creation stands as both a tribute to that defining moment and a continuation of the entrepreneurial spirit that has guided Zenith ever since, while naturally extending the Liberty editions into a series appreciated by collectors.

The Chronomaster Revival Liberty II revisits one of Zenith's most emblematic archival references, the A384 from 1969, faithfully reproducing its distinctive 37mm tonneau-shaped case. Its white-lacquered dial with blue counters is accented by a striped chronograph hand drawing inspiration from the American flag, featuring 13 alternating red and white stripes in reference to the original colonies. The tachymeter scale is rendered in blue throughout, with the “250” and the “4” on the date disc highlighted in red — subtle touches that echo both the colors of the American flag and the symbolic
date of independence. 

Inside beats the El Primero 400 calibre, a direct descendant of the world-renowed 1969 movement, the world’s first automatic, integrated high-frequency chronograph. Operating at 36,000 vibrations per hour (5 Hz), it enables precise measurement to the nearest tenth of a second, with a power reserve of approximately 50 hours. Visible through the transparent caseback, the movement reflects the Manufacture’s expertise and legacy.
