MINI around the clock.
The MINI Chronograph Watch silver features a captivating three-dimensional design and a sun-brushed dial with three chronograph eyes and a date indicator. The satin-finish stainless steel case and padded, three-hole leather strap in rally design complete the watch’s sporty look. Wearers can even measure speed with the stopwatch function and the fixed tachymeter scale. This high-quality, analogue watch is waterproof to ten atmospheres and is also easy to see in the dark thanks to its luminous hands and markers.
The black variant - the MINI Chronograph Watch black - contains all the same features. This model has a comfortable, durable silicone strap and includes splashes of eye-catching color with its red second hand and push button. Trademark checkered flag designs feature on the left side of the case and the middle chronograph eye.
The design inspiration behind the MINI Speedometer Watch is the car itself, as the dial of the analogue watch is modeled on the instantly recognizable MINI speedometer. Extra features include a date indicator, satin finish and part-polished stainless steel case, luminous hands and two interchangeable NATO straps in black/anthracite and black/red stripes. The watch is waterproof to ten atmospheres.
The MINI Weekdays Watch also features the original MINI speedometer design. This sporty analogue watch displays the days of the week in striking orange, and the hands are luminous so the wearer can tell the time even in the dark. The watch has a silicone strap and is waterproof to three atmospheres.
