The Land Rover Defender is famous for (among other things) just how little it has actually changed since being introduced in 1983 (or further, if you count the Series I, II, and III).

It’s only fitting then, that Zenith was tasked with designing a Defy 21 to celebrate the new Defender, as each looks to build new chapters atop their illustrious past without losing too much soul in the process. This dichotomy parallels a similar journey happening at Land Rover in their task of bringing the Defender into the 21st century with an all new generation for MY2020. Sure, it doesn’t have the charm you’ll find in something like the A386, but it pushes the architecture into a new direction and appeals to a new generation of enthusiasts in the process. The Zenith Defy 21 represents a high performance, modern take on the cherished El Primero movement.
