This year, Zenith is presenting the third and final limited edition in this exceptional collaboration, by combining the attributes of the first two models in this series. In 2020, the second white and “panda” dial version was released. Nearly 50 years after the initial airing of the anime series, Zenith finally turned fantasy into reality in 2019 by producing the Chronomaster Revival Lupin The Third, using the instantly recognizable A384 tonneau-shaped case and recreating the unusual black dial depicted in the first episode. And in the final episode of the first series, Jigen is again portrayed to be wearing another Zenith chronograph, but with a different “panda” dial that also never existed. In the very first episode of the animated Lupin The Thirdseries, Daisuke Jigen, the right-hand man and best friend of the title character Lupin III, is portrayed wearing a watch based on the Zenith A384 with a black, grey and gilt dial that had never actually existed.
The Lupin The Third series was created in 1965 by Kazuhiko Katō under the pen name Monkey Punch. Zenith has launched the final timepiece of its limited edition trilogy inspired by the famous Japanese manga and anime series Lupin The Third.
