Nordgreen Unika 32mm Women's Watch in Silver with Mesh Strap

Nordgreen is a Danish watch design brand rooted in Scandinavian minimalism, and the Unika series is perhaps the purest expression of just that. This watch is built for those who don’t need a watch that screams for attention, yet always gets noticed. The 32 mm stainless steel case sits discreetly and accurately on the wrist, neither too large for a slender arm nor too anonymous to be overlooked. The white dial is almost entirely smooth with only minimal indexes, and this is a deliberate choice: nothing distracts from the form.

The glass is made of sapphire, which is the same material you find in watches many times the price, and it does not scratch from keys in a bag or from a scrape against a desk. The movement is a Miyota 5Y20 quartz movement, which is Japanese and reliable, and virtually requires no maintenance other than battery replacement. The silver-coloured stainless steel mesh strap is one of the characteristics that make Unika recognizable: the distinctive decorative bands that coil around the case provide a detailed expression, even though the design itself is ultra-tight. It is a watch that works from morning meetings to evening dinners without you having to think about it. The water resistance of 3 ATM means it withstands daily use and handwashing fine, but it is not intended for swimming.
