Elka X02w-0901 Watch

The Watch

ELKA Watch Co. is a young brand that has made its mark in the watchmaking world through timepieces at the cutting edge of innovation. Their models celebrate in-house expertise by blending elegance with durability. With a refined, understated design, they carry classic and traditional silhouettes full of timeless charm. This stunning X02w-0901 watch is crafted for men who value authenticity. It features a round case in 316L stainless steel with brushed and polished finishing, measuring 40.80 mm in diameter, 10.80 mm thick, and 46.50 mm in length. Its slim profile ensures a contemporary look that never goes out of style. The dial is shielded from shocks and scratches by a scratch-resistant, anti-reflective sapphire crystal on one side for optimal legibility. The elegant knurled crown at 3 o'clock allows easy adjustment of all functions. Finally, the screw-down case back ensures water resistance of 3 ATM.

The Dial

This beautiful beige-toned dial brilliantly blends retro inspiration with modern influence for a truly unique result. Every design detail reflects a refined, pared-back aesthetic that captivates. It showcases bold printed Arabic numerals in black as minute markers - a signature detail that lends instant character. These surround a minute track running along the perimeter, framed by an orange ring with fine white graduations interspersed with triangular hour markers. At the center, two leaf-shaped hands crafted in brushed nickel indicate the hours (short) and minutes (long), both filled with beige SuperLuminova for legibility even at night. A beige-painted seconds hand completes the display. The brand's name is signed at twelve o'clock, with the label repeated at the bottom of the dial.

The Movement

ELKA Watch Co. equipped this stunning timepiece with a Swiss automatic movement renowned for its reliability and precision. It beats to the La Joux-Perret G100 caliber at a frequency of 28,800 alt/hour, delivering a power reserve of 68 hours. It sweeps the hands with fluid elegance for accurate display of hours, minutes, and seconds - and features a stop-seconds mechanism for precise time-setting.

The Strap

To complete the look, the brand opted for a beige NATO strap that reinforces the watch's classic, urban character. Its distinctive grooved texture sets it apart from the crowd. Flexible and comfortable, it pairs effortlessly with any outfit for an effortlessly stylish look. Fasten it with the pin buckle measuring 18 mm. The lug width is 20 mm.

Water Resistance

This watch offers water resistance of 3 atmospheres, or 30m. It's built for style, not for the water. It shines at dinner parties and social events - aquatic adventures are a different story. It handles rain, splashes, and the occasional dishwashing without complaint, but that's where it stops. We strongly recommend leaving it on the nightstand before a shower or bath - and absolutely before a swim or dive.
