Overview

The Zeppelin 100 Years Ed. 1 sets a chronograph and a big date on a silver dial, framed by a telemeter scale.

Big date and chronograph

The big date at 6 o’clock is easy to read at a glance. A single counter tracks chronograph intervals of up to 12 hours, and a subdial shows the small seconds.

The telemeter scale

The telemeter around the silver dial gives the distance to something you can both see and hear, such as a lightning strike. Black numerals and hour markers stand out on the silver dial.

The 100 Years line

The first watch in the 100 Years line, called 100 Jahre in German, was shown at the Basel watch fair in 1989.

The details

The Swiss Ronda 5020.B quartz movement powers the hours, minutes, small seconds, big date, and chronograph beneath a hardened K1 mineral crystal. The stainless steel case measures 42 mm across and 11 mm thick. Water resistance is rated at 50 meters.

The Milanese mesh bracelet, 22 mm at the lugs, fastens with a folding clasp. The watch is made in Germany.

Questions & Answers

How does the big date differ from a standard date?

It shows the date in larger figures, at 6 o’clock, so it is easier to read at a glance.

What is the telemeter scale for?

It measures the distance to an event you can both see and hear. Start the chronograph at a lightning flash and stop it at the thunder, and the scale shows how far away the strike was.

What is a Milanese mesh bracelet?

A bracelet woven from fine steel wire, so it is flexible and sits close to the wrist.

What is K1 crystal?

K1 is mineral glass that has been heat-treated to harden it, so it resists scratches and impacts better than standard mineral glass. A deep scratch can’t be polished out, though.

How water resistant is it?

It’s water resistant to 50 meters, but Zeppelin advises against wearing it in the shower or tub, or swimming in the ocean with it.
