World Cup fever in the air as NORQAIN partners with Swiss national team
With the FIFA World Cup just around the corner, Swiss watch brand NORQAIN has chosen the perfect moment to partner with the Swiss national football (soccer) team.
The new Adventure Chrono Swiss Football National Team Limited Edition has been designed in partnership with players of the team, with the sport itself at the centre of the creative process.
For instance, the green dial on the 41 mm stainless steel chronograph is inspired by the geometry of the pitch, while there is a football-shaped small seconds disc at 9 o’clock.
The Swiss flag is even integrated into the date display, replacing ‘26’ — a reference to the forthcoming 2026 World Cup in North America.
Inside, the watch is powered by the NORQAIN calibre N19 automatic chronograph movement with a 62-hour power reserve, while on the sapphire crystal caseback can be seen the Swiss Football Association logo and an engraving that reads: ‘LIMITED EDITION — ONE of 260.’
“Football has always been part of our family DNA and supporting the Swiss National Team is something truly meaningful for all of us at NORQAIN,” said the brand’s founder and CEO, Ben Küffer.
“From the very first discussions with the players, there was a shared vision to create a watch fully inspired by football, capturing the intensity of the game, the emotions on the pitch and the incredible atmosphere created by the fans in the stadium. Their passion and enthusiasm helped inspire bold details and emotional touches throughout the design. We wanted to create a truly special timepiece for football fans and collectors in Switzerland, and we are incredibly proud of the final result. This watch will hold a very special place in NORQAIN’s history.”
