The movement’s designer explains the construction in the video!

Zenith traces the roots of this replica watch, which is equipped with a fuse-and-chain constant force system, to its development of marine clocks. In this video the head movement designer of Zenith explains the function of a fuse-and-chain, and he also answers to the questions: How do you protect the chain when you’re winding the replica watch?
