Seiko VK67 meca-quartz version of the titanium ZX chronograph (the Valjoux 7750 version is a separate model). Zelos's first chronograph series, styled after the X-15 rocket plane, launched on Kickstarter in January 2018 and listed on zeloswatches.com in February 2018; every ZX product is now sold out and in Zelos's Discontinued Models collection. Zelos numbers the colourways (ZX-1 to ZX-3 titanium, ZX-4 to ZX-6 bronze); the product text is shared by the whole series ("CUSN8 Marine Bronze or Titanium Case"), so the case material per colourway is read from the photos, confirmed for ZX-2 and ZX-3 by SeriousWatches; titanium grade not stated. Zelos: "Seiko VK67 Mechaquartz" (store titles spell it "Mechquartz" for ZX-1 and ZX-2). SeriousWatches lists "Date: No", so the VK67's date is recorded as not shown. Zelos's Mechaquartz listings (and SeriousWatches') reuse the automatic version's photos, which show "Swiss Automatic" on the dial and the 7750 subdial layout; the VK67 puts the 60-minute counter at 12, the 12-hour counter at 9 and small seconds at 6, so the actual dial printing differs and no photo of it was found. Zelos gives one spec list for both movements: 43mm, "16mm Height" (not stated whether it includes the domed crystal, nor whether the thinner VK67 makes this version thinner), 49mm lug to lug, 100m, domed sapphire with inner AR, "Sapphire crystal caseback" (not confirmed for the Mechaquartz, so caseback is left blank). Lug width and fixed bezel per SeriousWatches; Zelos lists "Zirconium Oxide 1500 Vickers hardness" ceramic bezels on "selected models". The ZX-1's glossy black bezel looks ceramic in the photos but is not confirmed; the ZX-3 has a titanium bezel (SeriousWatches). Two-layer sandwich dial with BGW9 lume; Zelos's lume photo for the white-subdial versions shows fully lumed subdials (ZX-1). Sold on a Horween leather strap; Zelos also sold a titanium ZX bracelet separately ($119), so the bracelet fields are left blank. Crown screw-down and weight not stated. Prices are the store's default "sg" option on the sold-out listings; each listing also has an "hk" option (a country-pricing app, labelled "mlveda_country") at a higher price ($649; ZX-3 $799), not recorded. The Time Bum (October 2018) quotes $429 for a Mechaquartz ZX and $649 with a meteorite dial.
