Elka X03 Watch

The Watch

The young brand ELKA Watch Co. has carved out a reputation in the watchmaking world thanks to its refined aesthetics and unique designs. Its timepieces blend precision and innovation, winning over enthusiasts everywhere. Today, it unveils this stunning X03 model - designed for lovers of urban, ultra-chic style. Drawing on the aesthetic of the 1960s, it features a round case crafted in 316L stainless steel measuring 40.80 mm in diameter, 10.80 mm thick, and 46.50 mm lug-to-lug. Built for men's wrists, it sports brushed and polished finishes and is fitted with a chevé sapphire crystal that is both scratch-resistant and anti-reflective - protecting the dial from shocks and scratches while ensuring smooth readability. The knurled crown at 3 o'clock allows easy adjustment of the core functions. Finally, the screw-down case back ensures water resistance to 3 ATM.

The Dial

This superb timepiece features a clean, minimalist dial that makes reading the time effortlessly clear and precise. It's dressed in a blue tone dotted with white details for added visual appeal. The perimeter features a minute track marked with Arabic numerals that communicate the minutes with pinpoint accuracy. These surround two large leaf hands - the short one pointing to hour triangles along the edge, and the long one tracking the minutes. Treated with white Superluminova, they remain clearly legible even at night. A white seconds hand completes the display, while a white date window at 3 o'clock indicates the date. Finally, the brand signs the model at 12 o'clock with the "Swiss Made" mention at the south of the dial.

The Movement

This watch is powered by an automatic movement renowned for its robustness and performance - the La Joux Perret G100 caliber, complete with a stop-seconds device. It oscillates at a frequency of 28,800 alt/hour and offers an impressive 68-hour power reserve. It ensures the smooth running of the hands and the date window for a reliable and precise analog display.

The Strap

This magnificent model comes with three strap options to elevate your wrist and your outfits for any occasion. Each features an 18 mm pin buckle for easy fastening and a lug width of 20 mm.

The first NATO strap comes in beige and is elevated by a ribbed texture that defines its originality. Flexible and comfortable, it traces the contours of your wrist for a style all your own.

The second blue NATO strap delivers a monochromatic look. In perfect harmony with the dial, it stands out with its ribbed texture and wins you over with its chic, urban design - the ideal combo for a clean, refined style.

The third strap is crafted in blue bovine leather and decorated with white stitching for a beautiful contrast. It pairs with any outfit and delivers a chic, vintage style.

Water Resistance

With water resistance of 30 meters - or 3 ATM in watchmaking terms - this watch is by no means a water lover. Water is its delicate movement's worst enemy, so our team recommends keeping it away from any immersion. You can wear it in the rain or while doing the dishes, but there's no need to bring it into the shower or bath, take it for a swim, or show it the ocean floor - it clearly prefers to stay dry!
