For summer 2024, the Swiss brand NORQAIN is launching a capsule collection of summer colors with three new watches in the Freedom 60 Chrono 40mm collection. The original NORQAIN Freedom 60 Chrono model was one of NORQAIN's first products in 2020. Some find the standard 43mm version to be too big for them, so NORQAIN released a smaller 40mm version in 2022 , while retaining the same characteristics.
New summer colors for the Freedom 60 Chrono 40mm
The new summer colors for the NORQAIN Freedom 60 Chrono 40mm include a limited edition peach dial (reference N2201S22LC/F221, limited to 300 pieces), a non-limited sky blue dial (reference N2201S22C/IAA221) as well as a non-limited pistachio green dial. limited (reference N2201S22C/MT221). Each of these watches features a 40mm steel case and a matching steel bracelet. Although the colors are more playful, these watches are neither juvenile nor too artistic to be considered tool watches. The chronograph sub-dials are black for easy reading of the sub-counters, and these watches maintain their timeless professional sports watch appearance, with very dynamic dials.
Colorful Watch Trends
Colorful watches are currently very trendy. Brands are finding great success in transforming otherwise conservative or classic watches into more daring and attractive watches. It can be difficult to understand why this happens and how to best incorporate these colors into your own watch collection. Here are three main reasons why bright colored dials are trending: Reasons for the popularity of colorful watches:
Technical characteristics of the Freedom 60 Chrono 40mm
The Freedom 60 Chrono 40mm watches feature a polished and brushed case measuring 40mm wide and approximately 15mm thick, with a lug-to-lug distance of approximately 49mm. The cases are water-resistant to 100 meters, and the dial is protected by a domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment. These watches are available with various bracelets offered by NORQAIN, but they look particularly elegant with matching steel bracelets. One of the remarkable details of the dial is the integration of date discs matching the color of the dial, an attention to detail that enthusiasts will appreciate. Although bright colors are the focus of the theme, these watches maintain a masculine and serious look. Although a woman could easily wear one of these watches, NORQAIN maintains a masculine style for the Freedom 60 Chrono 40mm, which in my opinion enhances its overall appeal.
Movement and customization
Inside the watches is a Swiss Sellita SW510a automatic chronograph movement, which NORQAIN calls caliber N19. This modern movement is based on the proven architecture of the Valjoux 7750 but with several improvements. The 4 Hz automatic movement offers a 62-hour power reserve and, above all, an adjustable date corrector via the crown. This is worth mentioning because the Freedom 60 Chrono 43mm models I tested a few years ago used a previous generation movement requiring a recessed pusher to quickly adjust the date. It appears, however, that the current 43mm wide models now use the updated Sellita SW510a movements. You can admire the movement through the sapphire caseback of the Freedom 60 Chrono 40mm watches.
Don't forget that the “NORQAIN” plaque on the left side of the case can be replaced with a personalized engraved message. This is always a fun feature for those who want a more personal touch.
Price and availability
The price of the NORQAIN Freedom 60 Chrono 40mm in limited edition with metallic peach dial (reference N2201S22LC/F221) is โฌ4,300. The non-limited models with the sky blue dial (reference N2201S22C/IAA221) and the pistachio green dial (reference N2201S22C/MT221) are priced at โฌ4,200. To find out more, go to the NORQAIN website.
With vibrant summer colors, the new NORQAIN Freedom 60 Chrono 40mm watches offer a fresh and vibrant option for watch enthusiasts looking for a unique addition to their collection.
