DEFY Revival A3691

After the very first DEFY revisit with the A3642 (limited to 250pcs) last year, ZENITH launches the second DEFY Revival remake model A3691, based on the 1971 reference with a vivid red gradient-effect dial in a faceted octagonal case paired with a fourteen-sided bezel and the iconic Gay Frères steel “ladder” folding clasp bracelet as part their permanent collection.

Some snapshots of the ruby gradual vignette 37mm Defy A3691 ...


Sort of burgundy colour if no direct light hitting on the dial ...

I like the unique red dial color, shape of the case is great and the bracelet is super cool. The diameter case size is a mystery to me, 37mm seems to fit between a man and woman’s wrist. I would have preferred to see 39-41mm.

Looks very good

I like the indices, the case (stunningly unique), and the red gradient dial. I am okay with the size although it could be probably a bit bigger. I don’t like the ladder bracelet - iconic or not, it’s not my taste but of course this is subjective. The pric...

this bracelet works well in humid cities, and shouldn't be sticky wearing outdoor. The look, I think it is acquired taste Thanks for viewing. Kong

Haha, Zenith sent me the link this morning and was going to share a thread 😂

First, I love the dial colour. Much prefer it to the initial ltd release. It really brings the watch to life. Since I never got to try one I’m reserving judgment on the size. My impression is that it’ll be perfect for the shape and design. Any larger risk... 

That's nice of Zenith ...

this piece was shown during the LVMH Watchweek, and it can only be released after embargo. Looks pretty good, more exciting dial colour than previous A3642 for some people. Kong

Thanks for all the reporting.

It is striking and well proportioned. Another one to check out on top of the skyline skeleton and boutique edition.

This piece ...
