Norqain introduces a turquoise version of the Wild ONE Skeleton X-Lite, following the sellout of the original black-and-yellow limited edition unveiled at Watches and Wonders 2026. Measuring 41mm and weighing just 45 grams fully assembled, the COSC-certified watch combines a lightweight construction with a bold color scheme. Turquoise accents contrast with the black Norteq case construction, while the new model retains the technical specifications of the original. It joins the permanent collection, with annual production limited to 300 pieces worldwide.

Lightweight Design, High Shock, and Water Resistance

The Wild ONE Skeleton X-Lite brings together more than 30 components made from lightweight materials, including carbon-fiber-based Norteq, titanium, aluminum, rubber and X-Lite carbon fiber composite. Developed with Swiss material specialist BIWI, X-Lite is an evolution of Norteq designed to further reduce weight while absorbing shocks.

Used in the casing ring, the proprietary composite contributes to the watch’s resistance to impacts exceeding 5,000 g. Water resistance is rated to 100 meters.

Turquoise Accents and Two Strap Options

The new colorway extends across the rubber shock absorbers, crown insert, dial details, and double-layered strap, creating a strong contrast with the black case construction. Norqain offers two strap configurations. One combines black and turquoise rubber, with a perforated upper layer revealing the color beneath. The second pairs a perforated black rubber upper layer with an interchangeable, ultralight turquoise stretch band designed to adapt to the wrist.

The open-worked dial continues the black-and-turquoise color scheme, with turquoise details adding contrast to the exposed mechanics. The skeletonizeddesign puts the movement’s mountain-peak-inspired bridges in full view, reinforcing the watch’s technical character while maintaining visual depth.

Skeletonized Manufacture Movement

Inside, Norqain’s 4K manufacture caliber, developed in collaboration with AMT, delivers a 65-hour power reserve. Its skeletonized bridges and oscillating weight feature sculptural forms inspired by mountain peaks, giving the movement an architectural appearance that complements the watch’s technical construction. The self-winding movement can also be admired through the exhibition caseback.
