North Edge X1 Black/Red

Weighing just 43g, with an impact-resistant ABS case and a water resistance of 50m, the North Edge X1 combines military ruggedness with the lightness demanded by everyday sport. Its quick-reading square digital dial integrates a 1/100s chronograph, countdown timer and dual time zone, making it an accurate companion for training or travel without adding bulk to the wrist.

Ultra-lightweight and durable design

The ABS construction cushions against impact while the screwed 304L steel caseback seals the interior. At 13 mm thick and 46 × 43 mm in circumference, the X1 fits wrists up to 23 cm with a non-slip silicone strap, maintaining comfort over long periods of use.

Complete timekeeping tools

Includes chronograph with centesimal accuracy and countdown timer up to 99 h, ideal for interval training. The automatic calendar and selectable 12/24h format eliminate frequent adjustments, while the daily alarm with snooze function ensures timely reminders.

Visibility in any environment

The contrasting FSTN display is complemented by large-area EL backlighting, ensuring clarity during night runs or dimly lit indoor stays. Large digits allow information to be viewed at a glance even when on the move.

Durability against the elements

Certified to 50m, the North Edge X1 withstands recreational swimming, heavy rain and splashes. The digital module offers resistance to magnetism and vibration, protecting the watch's accuracy in demanding environments.

Our expert opinion

In the square digital watch segment, the North Edge X1 competes with icons like the Casio G-Shock DW-5600. While the G-Shock doubles the water resistance (200 m) and adds five alarms, it penalises with 53 g in weight and almost 3 mm thicker. The X1, on the other hand, stands out for its extreme lightness and low price, while retaining essential stopwatch, timer and calendar functions that cover most sporting needs. Those looking for an ultra-compact, tactical aesthetic and minimal maintenance will find the North Edge X1 an excellent performance-to-durability ratio, at the cost of forgoing deep dives.
