Inside is the El Primero automatic high-frequency integrated chronograph calibre, visible through the sapphire display back engraved with a drawing of Daisuke Jigen. The dial is housed in a 37mm steel barrel-shaped case that is a reproduction of the 1969 A384 case in proportions and finish and paired with a steel ladder bracelet originally designed by the famed Gay Frères company with a retro touch. Now, the third and final limited edition in this exceptional collaboration between the Manufacture and Lupin The Third has arrived, and it couldn’t be more surprising. The Lupin Edition, however, is only available in Japan and is limited to 50 pieces. In 2019, ZENITH became the first manufacture to produce a watch directly inspired by a depiction in a Japanese manga and anime series. On one side, the first Chronomaster Revival Lupin The Third edition’s semi-glossy black dial with deep grey counters and golden applied markers and hands, and on the other side, the second edition’s creamy-white dial with contrasting black counters in a “panda” configuration with beige SuperLumiNova.Ī delicate and long process, the blank dial is first finished entirely in a silvery-white colour on the right half, then the black chronograph counters are milled while the rest of the dial is protected with a layer of transparent and colourless lacquer. Pricing for the Zenith A384 Revival Lupin The Third Edition is not yet confirmed, but it’s expected to be close to that of the standard A384 Revival, which costs 7,600.
