About this entry

73% of key specs known. Missing: thickness, weight, hardening, crown.

Limited editions of the Starfighter Chronograph with case and bezel in ZircTi, listed by Zelos on 2 February 2023; the 316L steel Starfighter is a separate model. Zelos: ZircTi is made by welding zirconium and titanium layers, then repeatedly folding and forging them into a woodgrain pattern, and each case is hand-torched by Zelos's founder for its colours; "Only 25 pieces of each dial were made". Both are sold out but still listed in Zelos's Starfighter Chronograph collection (not Discontinued Models), so recorded as limited. Spec list: 41mm, 48mm lug to lug, "11mm without crystal" (total thickness not stated, so not recorded), 22mm lugs, 50m, ETA 2894 Elaboré with a custom 'Turbine' rotor and colour-matched date wheel, box sapphire with inner AR coating, C3 X1 and BGW9 lume, ZircTi tachymeter bezel, custom handmade leather strap plus a spare tropic rubber strap (no bracelet listed). No hardness claim for ZircTi. The photos show the same bi-compax layout as the steel model (running seconds at 3, 30-minute counter at 9, date at 6) and dark crown and pushers. Caseback, crown type and weight not stated.
