Quick TakeThe NORQAIN Independence, cloaked in its DLC armor and crowned with black diamonds, whispers a tale of rebellious elegance. Its black mother-of-pearl dial shimmers like captured starlight, each glance revealing a unique play of light and shadow. Peer through the sapphire case back and the heart of the watch is revealed. Red gold plated indices and hands dance against the darkness, brought to life by a touch of X1 Super-LumiNova. The robust, yet precisely dimensioned 40mm case, sits perfectly. It’s a watch that embraces contradictions – refined, yet audacious, it doesn't need to shout to command attention. The chronometer-certified movement, ticking away inside, demonstrates the timepiece's core reliability. The comfortable intergrated rubber strap, finished with a detail Milanese pattern, continues to convey the attention to refined details. This limited edition piece that can be embraced by anyone.

DescriptionThe Norqain Reference NB3008SD03A/BM303, part of the Independence collection, showcases a robust 40.00mm case constructed from 316L stainless steel. This steel is further enhanced with a diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating, providing exceptional scratch resistance and a sleek, dark aesthetic. The case dimensions are precisely engineered, with a thickness of 12.05mm, a lug-to-lug measurement of 46.30mm, and a lug width of 20.00mm. These specifications ensure a balanced presence on the wrist. Surrounding the dial is a fixed bezel, meticulously set with 60 black diamonds. These diamonds are classified as VS clarity, 1.40mm in diameter, and Full Cut, exhibiting Top Wesselton color grade. The watch maintains a water resistance of 100 meters, making it suitable for various aquatic activities, excluding deep diving. Operational integrity under pressure is further ensured by a screw-down crown, adorned with the NORQAIN logo.

Protecting the dial is a flat sapphire crystal, treated with a double anti-reflective coating to minimize glare and enhance legibility. The case back mirrors this construction, utilizing a scratch-proof flat sapphire glass, offering a view of the movement within. The dial itself is crafted from black mother-of-pearl, providing a unique, iridescent backdrop. Applied indexes, faceted and plated with red gold, are filled with white X1 Super-LumiNova® for optimal visibility in low-light conditions. The NORQAIN logo is applied to the dial at the 12 o'clock position, in red gold. A black inner flange frames the indices, and a date window has been added at the 3 o'clock position. Hands are diamond-cut, faceted, and red gold plated, also incorporating white X1 Super-LumiNova®. The central second hand is flat, red gold plated, with a luminescent fill. Powering the watch is the NORQAIN calibre N08, based on the Sellita SW200-1, a mechanical automatic movement that has obtained COSC chronometer certification. This movement incorporates 26 jewels and features a personalized NORQAIN oscillating weight. It boasts a power reserve of 41 hours and a balance frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4Hz). The left side of the case features an engraved 316L stainless steel DLC NORQAIN plate. The watch comes fitted with an integrated black rubber strap, exhibiting a "Milanese" pattern, and secured with a stainless steel pin buckle with DLC coating.
