Zennis's timing keeps pace with the model name and is also famous for the name "El Primero" in the movement. Among watch lovers, more people pay attention to this than the names of models. This is because this mechanical Croungraf movement is decorated with legends.
High vibration automatic timing movement "El Primero 3600"
El Primero is the Spanish word for "No.1". In 1969, the world's earliest self-winding movement was developed, and Seiko sold the world's earliest quartz watch, a two-sense era.
El Primero was the "first in the world" that year, one of the three self-winding movements of Kronoglav. The remaining one is the "Black Love" jointly developed by Huyer, Halo, Billon, Hamilton and Dubois de Pura, a Swiss watch company. The other is Seiko's career 6139.
Among them, El Primero is a very prominent specification. The vibration frequency is higher than that of the other two movements. In fact, the performance of an ordinary watch cannot be calculated by the vibration frequency alone. In timing, the vibration frequency is directly related to the performance. The vibration frequency "can be measured to a fraction of a second" varies according to the vibration frequency.
El Primero's nuts vibrate at a frequency of 36,000 vibrations per hour. If you divide it by 1 hour = 3600 seconds, it is 10. This means that El Primero can make timing measurements in units of 1 tick and 10 seconds. This is a better performance than other movements. This is one of the reasons why El Primero is called the "legendary".
In addition, El Primero has some surprising legends. One of them is the miraculous avoidance of "disappearance" and the restoration of modern legends.
With the emergence of quartz watches, Swiss manufacturers began to have an existential crisis in the mid-1970s, and many manufacturers were acquired and changed their management. Zenis was also acquired, and the new operator instructed: "all equipment related to mechanical watches should be destroyed."
At this time, if you follow the instructions, Zenis disappeared as a watch brand, and now it's a completely different brand. But there was a watch technician who did not secretly follow this instruction. Instead of destroying El Primero's designs and tools and moulds for manufacturing, he hid them in the attic of the factory.
Then, in the early 1980s, when the mechanical watch boom began, there was an upsurge of calls for the "resurrection of El Primero" from other watch brands. At that time, with blueprints and fixtures, El Primero was resurrected in 1984.
Equipped with the latest specification of El Primero "El Primero 3600"
