The polished center links perfectly complement elements like the polished bevels of the watch, and the play over the light of these surfaces is amazing. He explains, “I think this adds a beautiful sense of contrast with the brushed finishes and makes for a truly stunning watch. Romain Marietta, Zenith’s dynamic director of product development and heritage, actually experimented with many different levels of polish for the ladder bracelet, but in the end we decided on just the center links. Grade 5 titanium is the only quality of titanium that can be mirror polished in this way, and it is the material selected for serious horological finery from brands such as De Bethune. Why did we do this? Partially because we wanted to give the wearer a visual clue that we’ve used grade 5 titanium for both the case of the watch and the ladder bracelet.
