MiniLip 29 671970 Watch

The Watch

Lip embodies a distinctly French vision of elegance. Bridging tradition and modernity, it has established itself as an unmissable name in watchmaking. With over 100 years of expertise, the brand continues to win over watch enthusiasts with diverse collections that marry vintage style with contemporary innovation. Lip is committed to using quality materials and reliable movements across all its creations. It now unveils this beautiful MiniLip watch, inspired by an iconic educational timepiece with the tagline "This is not a watch for the faint-hearted." This educational model features a 31 g case crafted in 316L stainless steel. It wears a gold-tone color with a polished finish for extra brilliance on the wrist of whoever wears it. Round in shape, the case measures 29 mm in diameter and is topped with a flat mineral crystal that showcases the dial in all its glory. A crown at 3 o'clock handles hour and minute adjustments. Finally, this timepiece features a screwed caseback providing water resistance of 5 ATM.

The Dial

This silver-toned dial is made up of 3 circles for easy reading. With a matte finish, the first navy blue circle displays the afternoon hours and the second grey circle the morning hours. Both circles are swept by the red hour hand, while the grey hand tracks the Arabic numerals on the central circle, which displays the minutes in a highly intuitive way: "5," "10," "quarter past", "half past", "twenty to", "quarter to"…. The brand's name is inscribed at 12 o'clock as its signature.

The Movement

A Japanese quartz movement powers the central elements. It is specifically the Miyota 2025 caliber, running on a 377 battery with a battery life of 3 years and a precision of +/-20 seconds/month.

The Strap

This stunning nylon strap combines red and black for a bold look. It fastens with a gold-tone pin buckle for a secure, adjustable fit on any wrist. With a lug width of 14 mm, it pairs effortlessly with any outfit.

Water Resistance

With water resistance of 50 meters, or 5 ATM in watchmaking terms, this is a timepiece that can handle water - but prefers to keep contact brief. You can wear it in the shower on occasion, though to preserve the quality and precision of the movement, every watch expert strongly recommends keeping it well away from the bath, pool, or sea. In short: no swimming, no diving, and no prolonged water exposure.
