As Extreme E moves towards making the future of rally racing more electric and eco-friendly, “the DEFY Extreme E edition commemorates this with an all-carbon construction, a first for the DEFY Extreme line.” The ‘Vital Green’ colour of the DEFY Extreme E acts as a message of awareness and action on climate change and the strap and packaging is made of recycled and upcycled parts from previous Extreme E races.
The Zenith DEFY Extreme E second edition watch is limited to 100 pieces and is priced at £26,600.
