The Norqain Wild One Skeleton: Smaller in size, still big on style

The Norqain Wild One Skeleton 39mm is technically part of the brand’s larger “Independence” watch collection, on account of its case shape, but its architecture is definitely unique.

The Wild One was always destined to be Norqain’s poster child.

Maybe due to the sports celebrity endorsement or collectors’ desire for something refreshing, the Wild One Skeleton has enjoyed plenty of success.

To further develop this success story, Norqain expanded the collection at Watches and Wonders 2025, downsizing the lightweight sports watch from 42mm to a versatile (and on-trend) 39mm diameter.

The Mint Norqain Wild One Skeleton 39mm is a limited edition.

The watch features a case designed to absorb shock and vibration, perhaps the main causes of damage or disruption to the operation of a mechanical movement inside.

It’s also ultra-lightweight at only 64g.

The Norteq carbon fibre composite case offers 200m water resistance, but also wears surprisingly slim, considering its sports/dive watch-derived aesthetic.

Designed to be ultra-light yet strikingly bold, the Norqain Wild One Skeleton 39mm is crafted from proprietary Norteq composite material featuring shock-absorbing construction.

It’s 11.75mm thick and 45.75mm lug-to-lug.

Thanks to the rubberised case and strap materials, the Norqain Wild One Skeleton can be accented with an array of bright, friendly colourways of Hyper Pink, Sky Blue, Purple Ice and the limited edition Mint.
