NORQAIN continues to evolve its Wild ONE series with two striking new releases: the Wild ONE Skeleton 42mm in grey NORTEQ® and an elevated edition in responsibly sourced 18-carat red gold. Both pieces build on the brand’s commitment to innovation and adventure, pairing high-performance engineering with bold, openworked aesthetics. The launch is backed by NORQAIN co-founder and NHL star Roman Josi, whose influence is keenly felt in the rugged yet refined execution of the grey NORTEQ® model.
The Wild ONE Skeleton 42mm Grey introduces a new colourway for NORQAIN’s proprietary NORTEQ® composite—an ultra-light, ultra-robust carbon fibre material designed for extreme durability. Framing a skeletonised dial treated in black ruthenium, the grey case is paired with a black rubber shock absorber and offers 200 metres of water resistance. Inside, the COSC-certified calibre NB08S beats with a 41-hour power reserve, its mechanics visible through the dramatically open dial. It’s finished on a Milanese-style rubber strap with a matching grey NORTEQ® buckle, rounding out a package tailored for elite sport and everyday wear.
In contrast, the Wild ONE Skeleton 42mm Gold layers refinement over resilience. A solid red gold top component—crafted from traceable, mercury-free gold via PX Group—sits atop a brown rubber shock absorber and black NORTEQ® cage. The same skeletonised calibre powers the piece, but here the mood shifts: it’s the Wild ONE reimagined for the collector who demands ethics with elegance. Limited to 100 pieces per year, this model doesn’t shout luxury, it defines it on its own terms.
