MIDDLEBURY, CT – Nautica strikes a perfect balance between form and function in its new sport watch, the NST 02. This sophisticated timepiece has it all – chronograph, turning top ring, luminous hands and markers and a recessed tachymeter, all in a smart, eye-catching design with authentic nautical details.
The NST 02 is available in two versions, a chronograph with a date window and stopwatch functionality that marks 24 hours, 60 minutes, and 60 seconds, and a multifunction version with day, date and 24 hour indicators.
Featuring a 48mm stainless steel case, the NST 02 utilizes accents of bold, bright color on the aluminum pushers, second-hand and a sweep of the top ring. The splashes of color enhance this timepiece’s look of adventure.
A cross-hatch, textured dial draws attention to the NST 02’s new textured silicone strap. The straps integrate seamlessly into the case, and are available in black, blue, yellow and orange silicone as well as a stainless steel bracelet version.
The signature J-class sail etched on the crown ties the watch to the Nautica brand’s heritage that is inspired by the sea with a spirit of adventure. The watch is water resistant up to 100M.
“The NST 02 builds on our popular NST Chrono collection,” states Linda Calvert, VP Global Brand Management. “The signature dial detail and bold design combined with our colorful, new textured silicone strap carries this enduring style into the ever growing sea of color.”
