The Independence Skeleton Chrono is a sports watch with a bold openwork dial and a flyback chronograph movement, showcasing avant-garde functional beauty. The new model is available in two vibrant colors, further enhancing its distinctive character. Furthermore, the 42mm case is crafted from grade 5 titanium, giving both models excellent scratch resistance and lightness.
The basic specifications are the same as the previous model. The movement is equipped with the "Norqain 8K Manufacture Caliber", and the flyback chronograph can be operated by the pushers at the 2 o'clock and 4 o'clock positions on the case. In addition, the satin-finished
The dial reveals the intricate movement of the chronograph, while the black and colored bridges that match the theme color of each model give the openworked face a sophisticated and original look.
Both models are fitted with rubber straps in a colour that matches the dial, and feature the brand's signature NORQAIN plate on the side of the case, which can be inscribed with an anniversary date or a personal motto, according to the purchaser's wishes.
The jade-colored model will be sold in limited quantities of only 500 worldwide.

The highlight of this collection is that it is light, weighing just 64g, yet water resistant to 200m and shock resistant to 5000G. This shock resistance is achieved through a unique shock-resistant structure that combines Nortec, rubber shock absorbers, and a titanium container, making it a versatile sports watch that can be used in any environment, just like the 42mm Wild One.
The lineup includes four colorful colors that will adorn the wrist of both men and women. The mint green color is a limited edition color, with only 400 pieces sold worldwide. Each model also features a rubber strap in the same color as the Nortec case, creating a striking contrast between the black and vivid colors of the entire watch.
All four models are equipped with the Caliber N08S. This movement, which is COSC-certified and based on the architectural principle of beam construction, offers excellent stability and durability. It offers a power reserve of approximately 41 hours, and its unique construction can be seen through the dial.
