Zenith Elite Ultra Thin Lady Moonphase 16.2310.692/81.C706 is an exceptionally elegant women’s mechanical watch that combines classic style with a jewelry finish. A 33 mm diameter case, mother of pearl dial and factory-made diamonds create a very subtle and luxurious configuration.
Diamonds decorate both the bezel and the dial. The total weight of the stones is approximately 0.5 ct, thanks to which the watch clearly attracts attention, but at the same time does not lose its elegant character.
The dial itself is made of white mother of pearl. Therefore, its appearance changes depending on the light and viewing angle. One moment it looks very calm and bright, and a moment later it shows delicate pearl reflections.
One of the most interesting elements is, of course, the complication of the moon phases. It is placed at 6 o’clock and fits perfectly with the jewelry character of the dial. In addition, there is a small seconds hand in the same area, ensuring that the layout remains elegant and harmonious.
The case is 33 mm in diameter, so the proportions are very universal on a women’s wrist. Moreover, the Elite line is famous for its slim and delicate shapes, so the watch looks light despite the presence of a diamond bezel.
The whole thing is covered with a convex sapphire glass with an anti-reflective coating. On the back side, there is another sapphire glass through which you can observe the operation of the in-house Zenith mechanism.
Inside, there is an automatic Zenith Elite 692 caliber. The mechanism offers a minimum of 50 hours of power reserve, has 27 jewels and operates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour. Moreover, its rotor is decorated with the characteristic Côtes de Genève cut.
The Elite caliber 692 consists of 195 parts and is only 3.97 mm thick. Thanks to this, Zenith was able to maintain the very elegant proportions of the watch, despite the use of automatic winding and the complication of moon phases.
The model is combined with an elegant leather strap. The presented strap is still in good condition, so the watch is ready for further use without the need for immediate replacement.
The Zenith Elite Ultra Thin Lady Moonphase is a great option for someone who is looking for a women’s luxury watch but also wants true mechanical watchmaking. Diamonds and mother of pearl give it a jewelry character, while the Elite caliber 692 reminds us that it remains a fully-fledged in-house watch.
