The A384 Revival piece has the same dial features, including the three counter layout (30 minutes at 3 o’clock, 12 hour at 6 o’clock and constant seconds at 9 o’clock) along with the date window between 4 and 5 pm. The design of the Zenith El Primero A384 Revival Watch has tried to stay true to the original piece as much as possible, while using the latest materials and technology to give it the modern finish. With the return of this bracelet on the El Primero A384 Revival watch, it goes back to the origins of the timepiece and completing the once retro look it had. The bracelet was not only comfortable to wear but also gave it a dressier look compared to the conventional steel and sports bracelets at the time. What was created by Gay Frères was an open design bracelet, termed “ladder” bracelet. This is where the famed Gay Frères specialist company came in, to not only create a bracelet that was unique at the time, but also perfectly compliment the El Primero A384’s avant-garde design. Along with new case design, the Swiss watch manufacturer sought to go for a new bracelet design too. The Zenith A384, alongside A385 and A386, were the first watches to feature the El Primero movement. In 1969 when the A384 was being designed, Zenith had to come up with a new case layout in order to be able to fit the el primero movement. The A384 Revival was originally released in 2019, however this year, they have gone back to a full retro look for the watch by releasing it with the exclusive bracelet that the original El Primero A384 made its appearance in. One of the pieces that stood out from this relase was the El Primero A384 Revival watch. We already looked at the Elite Classic range here. Earlier this year, during LVMH watch week in Dubai, Zenith released a variety of watches for both ladies and gents.
