The modern version of Zenith's famous A386, the Chronomaster Original is one of the rarest time machines admired not only by chronograph fans but by all watch enthusiasts. We can say that the main reason behind this appreciation is that the design details and color scale of the model have been preserved for decades and transferred to the present day.

The Chronomaster Original is not the first watch where the El Primero caliber meets the black dial. The most popular members of the Chronomaster Sport series have been dominating the chronograph market for a while with both white and black dial options, but Chronomaster Original, unlike the Sport version, serves a completely different audience.
