The Zelos Helica 39 ‘Kyanite’ brings a genuine natural mineral dial to the brand’s slim everyday sports-watch platform. Rather than relying on applied colour or a conventional surface finish, the dial draws its character from translucent kyanite and its naturally occurring striations, giving each piece subtle variation of its own. Set within the compact 39mm Helica case, the mineral dial is balanced by faceted stainless-steel construction, a box-shaped sapphire crystal and a tapered multi-link bracelet. A Miyota 9015 automatic movement and 100 metres of water resistance complete a watch designed to make an unusual material genuinely practical for daily wear. Inspiration & Design The Helica is Zelos’s interpretation of the modern go-anywhere, do-anything (GADA) sports watch: slim, versatile and practical, but with considerably more visual character than a conventional everyday watch. Its faceted case and bracelet mix brushed and polished surfaces, creating changing reflections while maintaining a clean contemporary profile. While CNC-guilloché dials form the core of the Helica collection, the Kyanite takes a different route. Zelos introduced natural stone alongside the latest generation of the collection, allowing the inherent texture and variation of the mineral itself to become the focal point. Dial & Case Details The defining feature is the kyanite dial, a translucent natural mineral characterised by subtle striations. Because it is a natural material, variations in colour, pattern and texture are inherent to the dial - giving individual watches their own character rather than a perfectly uniform appearance. The dial is framed by the Helica’s cleaner hand and index design, introduced by Zelos to keep attention focused on the more intricate dial treatments. Super-LumiNova C3 and BGW9 X1 Grade provide low-light visibility. The 316L stainless-steel case measures 39mm in diameter, 45.5mm lug-to-lug and 10.5mm thick without the crystal, increasing to 11.9mm with the box-shaped sapphire crystal. Brushed and polished surfaces accentuate its faceted construction, while 100m water resistance reinforces the Helica’s everyday versatility. Movement & Mechanics Inside is the Miyota 9015 automatic movement, a slim Japanese mechanical calibre well suited to the Helica’s relatively slender case. A custom date wheel integrates the date complication into the design, while the movement provides a proven and practical foundation for a watch intended for regular wear. Bracelet/Strap & Wearability The Helica 39 Kyanite is fitted with a multi-link, faceted stainless-steel bracelet, continuing the combination of brushed and polished surfaces found on the case. It tapers from 20mm at the lugs to 16mm at the clasp, helping the bracelet feel proportionate to the compact 39mm case. The latest Helica generation also introduces a butterfly clasp with quick adjustment, providing four adjustment positions across 10mm for easier fine-tuning on the wrist. Final Impression The Kyanite feels particularly well suited to the Helica. Its natural mineral dial gives the watch individuality and visual depth, but the surrounding design remains restrained enough to let the material do the work. The compact 39mm dimensions and slim case also keep the watch firmly within the everyday-wear territory that defines the collection. For collectors interested in stone dials but reluctant to move into something overtly dressy or ornamental, the Helica 39 Kyanite offers an appealing alternative: an unusual natural material inside a genuinely versatile modern sports watch.

The Zelos GT 42mm Carbon ‘Heritage’ brings motorsport cues into a lightweight forged-carbon case, pairing a light-blue dial with bold orange racing stripes and matching accents. The result is deliberately energetic, but the execution remains distinctly Zelos - unconventional materials, strong colour and mechanical detail brought together in a watch that doesn't follow the usual sports-watch formula. Inside, the Miyota 9133 automatic movement adds a power-reserve display to the dial, while a box-shaped sapphire crystal gives the relatively slim case additional visual depth. Inspiration & Design The GT collection draws its character from the visual language of motorsport, and the Heritage makes that influence particularly clear. Two orange racing stripes run vertically across the light-blue dial, immediately recalling the contrasting stripes used on competition cars. Orange accents continue through the dial details, creating a strong visual connection between the mechanical display and the racing-inspired theme. The forged-carbon case pushes the design further away from a conventional steel sports watch. Its irregular carbon structure means the material itself contributes texture and variation, giving the GT a distinctly technical appearance. Dial & Case Details The light-blue dial is crossed by orange racing stripes, complemented by gunmetal hands and indices. Orange luminous accents add another layer of contrast, while the movement's power-reserve display introduces useful mechanical information directly onto the dial. Zelos specifies Super-LumiNova BGW9 for the watch. The forged-carbon case measures 42mm in diameter and just 46mm lug-to-lug, giving its relatively broad diameter a compact footprint. Thickness is 10.8mm excluding the crystal and 12.5mm including it, with a 22mm lug width. A box-shaped sapphire crystal adds height and character above the case, while water resistance is rated to 50 metres. Movement & Mechanics The GT Heritage is powered by the Miyota 9133 automatic movement, a Japanese mechanical calibre incorporating a power-reserve display. That additional indication suits the GT particularly well. Rather than hiding the mechanical functionality beneath the surface, the remaining running reserve becomes part of the dial architecture - adding visual interest while giving the wearer useful information about the state of the movement. Bracelet/Strap & Wearability The GT Heritage is fitted with a leather strap with matching stitching, continuing the colour-led character of the dial while providing a more traditional counterpoint to the technical forged-carbon case. With a 22mm lug width, the strap also maintains the broad, sporting proportions of the watch without adding the visual or physical weight of a metal bracelet. Final Impression The GT Heritage is Zelos at its more playful. There is plenty happening visually - forged carbon, powder blue, orange racing stripes and a power-reserve display — but those elements all serve the same motorsport-inspired idea rather than feeling added for effect. Its proportions are also more considered than the 42mm diameter might initially suggest. A short 46mm lug-to-lug and relatively slim case body keep the GT compact, while the forged-carbon construction reinforces its technical character. For collectors who associate Zelos primarily with dive watches, the GT offers a very different expression of the brand's willingness to experiment with materials and design.

The Zelos Eagle 2 Titanium Carbon builds on the brand’s original pilot watch concept with a more refined case design and upgraded materials. Its lightweight titanium construction is paired with a carbon composite dial, creating a watch that feels technical without being overdesigned. With a Type B pilot’s layout, strong lume, and a Swiss automatic movement, it balances legibility, durability, and everyday usability. Inspiration & Design The Eagle takes cues from aviation, both in function and construction. The multi-part case features a honeycomb-engraved midcase enclosed within a skeletonised lug structure, referencing the structural design of modern aircraft. The surfaces alternate between sandblasted and polished finishes, giving the case more definition without excess detailing. The use of a Type B dial layout improves readability, with clear separation between minute and hour scales - an approach rooted in traditional pilot watches. Dial & Case Details This Carbon variant features a forged carbon composite dial produced by Fatcarbon, with subtle gold inlay running through the material. Each dial is unique, with natural variation in pattern and tone. The dark base contrasts with the fully lumed numerals, maintaining clarity while adding visual texture. The titanium case is treated with a 1200HV hardened coating to improve scratch resistance, while the box-shaped sapphire crystal enhances legibility and gives the watch a slightly more pronounced profile, reminiscent of a cockpit canopy. A sapphire caseback reveals the movement, adding a technical layer without disrupting the overall design. Movement & Mechanics Inside is the La Joux Perret G100 Soigné automatic movement, finished in anthracite with a custom turbine-style rotor. With a 68-hour power reserve, it offers strong autonomy for daily wear. La Joux Perret is known for producing higher-end mechanical movements, and its inclusion here elevates the Eagle beyond entry-level pilot watches. Bracelet/Strap & Wearability The watch is fitted on an FKM rubber strap with white pilot-style stitching and a titanium buckle. This keeps the watch lightweight and comfortable, while maintaining a sport-oriented feel. At 39mm with a relatively slim profile, the Eagle 2 wears balanced and versatile across different wrist sizes. Final Impression The Zelos Eagle 2 Titanium Carbon is a considered take on the modern pilot’s watch. It focuses on material, structure, and proportion rather than excess detail. The combination of a carbon composite dial, hardened titanium case, and Swiss movement gives it a more refined and technical character. A strong option for those looking for a pilot’s watch with depth and everyday practicality. Explore Other Variants Explore other Zelos watches available at Red Army Watches Singapore.

The Zelos GT series takes its cues from classic grand tourers - streamlined, wearable, and built around proportion rather than excess. The Carbon Teal refines this further with a smaller 40mm case and a dial that introduces structure through colour. The forged carbon base keeps the watch understated, while the blue lume stripes create a clear visual axis across the dial. Inspiration & Design The design draws from automotive references, particularly instrument readability and directional flow. The racing stripe concept is integrated into the dial rather than applied as decoration: Creates a central visual guide across the display Improves legibility without adding clutter Reinforces the GT's performance-inspired identity At 40mm with a 45mm lug-to-lug, the watch wears more compact than the 42mm variants, making it more versatile across wrist sizes. Dial & Case Details The dial is forged carbon, giving each piece a unique marbled pattern. Matte surface reduces reflections Blue Super-LumiNova stripes provide contrast in daylight BGW9 lume emits a cool blue glow in low light The forged carbon case maintains consistency: Lightweight and comfortable for daily wear Subtle texture variation across each case Paired with a box-shaped sapphire crystal for added depth and slight vintage distortion at angles The combination creates a balance between organic material and structured layout. Movement & Mechanics Powered by the Miyota 9133 automatic movement, featuring an integrated power reserve complication. Approx 40–45 hour power reserve 28,800bph Hacking and hand-winding The power reserve display is incorporated cleanly, adding functionality without interrupting the dial’s symmetry. Bracelet/Strap & Wearability Fitted on a leather strap with matching stitching, keeping the watch grounded despite its technical materials. 20mm lug width Softens the overall look of the carbon case Comfortable for extended wear On wrist: 45mm lug-to-lug gives a compact, controlled fit 12.5mm thickness (with crystal) remains balanced Lightweight case enhances long-term wearability Final Impression The Zelos GT Carbon Teal offers a slightly different take on the GT concept. It introduces direction and contrast through the racing stripes, making it more immediately legible and visually engaging than the more uniform carbon variants. Still, it remains restrained enough for daily wear. This is a GT that feels more intentional in its layout, without losing the lightweight and material-driven appeal of forged carbon.
