Description
The Zenith Defy is a true classic from the 1970s – robust, distinctive and with a design that defies categorization. Despite its bold wrist presence, it wears surprisingly comfortably and stands out from anything else in the vintage world.

The dial of this Zenith Defy A7682 features a captivating Sabbia-Coffee gradient – transitioning from a light, sand-colored center to a darker, coffee-brown outer edge. This creates a dynamic play of light and shadow that brings the dial to life.

A particular highlight is the set of applied block hour markers with striking striped decoration, which stand out clearly against the background and perfectly reflect the sporty-futuristic spirit of the Defy line. The design is further enhanced by a minute track with red accents. The date window at 4:30 is subtly integrated, adding functionality without disrupting the overall aesthetic.

The watch’s strong retro character is underscored by its signature tonneau case – a hallmark of 1970s design with unmistakable presence.

Collectors will appreciate that both the reference and serial numbers are clearly legible on the caseback – a strong indicator that the watch remains unpolished. The original crown, bearing the Zenith NATO star, is also intact – a further sign of authenticity.

The original stainless steel bracelet completes the watch, perfectly matching the case shape and rounding off the powerful appearance of this vintage icon.

A watch with real vintage charm, a bold look and refined details – a true 1970s Zenith Defy.
