Nov 29 2011

Make no mistake about it, this is not your great-grandfather’s pocket watch. Or your grandfather’s Timex. Or your father’s Swatch. The next legend of time pieces is marking a new trend in design, class and durability.

 

Built with comfort and style in mind, these watches are breaking out of the box, creating a new statement for an entire generation.

The Nooka Zub Zot 20 is a rebellion against classic timepieces. No ticking hands, no numbered dials. Instead, an eclectic design of dots and bars to show the hour and minutes. Durable and strong, made with polyurethane rubber to offer a comfortable wear it provides a brilliance that is hard not to notice.

 

Nooka’s collaboration with Nickelodean and Viacom Consumer Products has resulted in a playful twist on the retro-pop culture. The quintessential bar designs on the face of the watch tells the time, while the retro headphones embellish the band, giving the Nooka MTV Zub Zenh Headphones 38 it’s own sense of character and personality.

 

Nooka Zub Zayu Blue Watch offers a truly unique design along with the largest watch face available. The time capsule display and comfort fit band finish off the perfect timepiece for those with a busy lifestyle. It’s easily switched from left wrist to right, without losing any functionality, a definite innovation in watch design.

 

Nooka operates under the belief that anything is possible. And it is. We see that in the beckoning style that makes each and every watch a piece of artwork. An expression of youth, a symbol of solidarity and a showcase of independence. Stepping away from tradition and leaping forward into a future of endless possibilities.
