A Factory-Backed Collaboration That Redefines the El Primero
This Zenith Chronomaster El Primero Radar is the product of a rare and officially sanctioned collaboration between Zenith and Bamford Watch Department, a UK-based design studio known for custom-modifying high-end luxury watches. In a space where most customizations void warranties or stray from the brand’s vision, Zenith embraced Bamford’s daring aesthetic, bringing it to life with full factory approval and execution. The result is this Radar edition, limited to just 50 pieces worldwide, combining Zenith’s mechanical pedigree with Bamford’s signature retro-futuristic design language.
Key Features
• Official Zenith x Bamford factory-collaboration — limited to 50 pieces worldwide
• Red-accented “Radar” dial with smoked gradient and vintage military instrument design
• Powered by the high-beat El Primero 400 B chronograph movement
• Comes with two OEM black rubber straps with red stitching and deployant clasp
Why Collectors Love It
This watch represents something few collaborations do: the merging of classic watchmaking with creative, design-forward reinterpretation, all under warranty and factory-finished. Bamford took inspiration from a 1916 Zenith pocket watch and channeled it into the Radar’s smoked grey gradient dial, bold red accents, and striking sub-dial layout. For collectors, this piece offers rarity, originality, and storytelling in equal measure, powered, of course, by the iconic El Primero 400 B movement. It’s a serious statement piece with serious legitimacy.
Condition
The watch is running well and in excellent condition. Little to no visible wear on the case and straps, with light signs of wear on the clasp. Additional photos or video available upon request.
Set Contents
Includes inner and outer Zenith x Bamford boxes, cleaning cloth, warranty card, warranty card holder, and a complimentary first service card from Zenith. Comes with two OEM black rubber straps with red stitching and a deployant clasp.
