I.N.O.X. From Victorinox - Setting History In Time

Victorinox - the name behind the famous Swiss Army Knife is celebrating the 130th Anniversary of its parent company, Swiss Army, and how! Victorinox has launched a new watch which is no short of a tour de force: I.N.O.X. is a watch that is ready to defy the imagination with its sharp design.

I.N.O.X. takes its name from the French word for stainless steel - Inox - and there is a special reason behind this. The makers of I.N.O.X. watch have put this watch through a series of tests - and when I say series, I don't mean 10 or 20 tests - but rather a total of 130 tests to ensure the robustness of this watch which is going to make history.

I tried to find out the kind of testing that the watch has undergone and this is a sample of what I found:

  • The watch can withstand a 10-meter drop onto a concrete surface
  • Survives a 64-ton tank driven over it
  • I.N.O.X. can resist two 
  • hours in a washing machine (just in case you forgot it in your jeans pocket!)
  • I.N.O.X. can resist a temperature range as varied as a -51° C to +71 ° C
  • The makers also subjected it to corrosive materials and I.N.O.X. survived through corrosive products such as gasoline, solvents, oils, cleaning products and insecticides. 
  • It stays waterproof at even 200 meters of depth underwater.

I.N.O.X. has been made to last. While strength is its main characteristic, it still is a stylish timepiece that is sleek and compact. The timepieces are available in 3 color options of black, khaki green and navy blue. Each is equipped with the Swiss Ronda quartz movement. 

Some details about the watch:
  1. Reinforced stainless steel (43mm)

For me the classic black is an all time favorite but this time around its the khaki watch that has really drawn my attention. I think this is such a grand and apt way to celebrate the 130 years of perfection that Victorinox Swiss Army portrays!
