Zenith DEFY El Primero 21 Ultraviolet Watch: Owner's Evaluation

Back in 2018, I had the chance to spend some time with the Zenith Defy El Primero 21 Ceramic and, after having purchased and sold many watches within my personal collection, I had a difficult time completely forgetting about it.

Fast forward to 2020 when Zenith first introduced the Defy Ultraviolet and I knew the time had come. Not only had the case been upgraded to a unique microblasted titanium, but the watch also boasted colorful accents in one of my favorite tones – purple.

Since I covered most details of the Defy model in the previously-linked review, on this page, I’ll be doing a brief overview of the highlights that are more exclusive to this Ultraviolet version.
