For the launch of its first purely feminine watch collection, Swiss watchmaking house Zenith has brought together a group of accomplished women, including American ballerina Precious Adams, to celebrate their inspirational personal stories in pursuit of their passions – often against the odds – to ‘reach their star’.

The Defy Midnight is a versatile sporty-chic watch inspired by the celestial. Its 36mm steel case is dusted with diamonds, its dial in deep blue or grey shades depicts the night sky, and it’s powered by an automatic in-house movement.
