To mark the end of the year with a bang, ZINVO launches not one, but two new models to their Blade collection—the Blade Venom and the Blade Nemesis. While both watches feature all-black 42mm stainless steel cases and a patent-pending dial design that includes a rotating turbine disc instead of a traditional seconds hand, each wristwatch also boasts its own unique design details.
Carbon fiber is the name of the game on the Blade Venom. Not only is the distinct pattern found on the black dial, but also on the black leather strap. The use of this particular material emphasizes the brand’s affection for epic supercars.
On the other hand, the Blade Nemesis flawlessly combines an edgy aesthetic with a touch of luxuriousness thanks to the 18k yellow gold chapter ring. The gleaming precious metal is a striking contrast to the rest of the watch’s all-black look.
Commenting on the duo of new Blades, Borys Khudomaka, founder of ZINVO, said, “The core of the ZINVO philosophy is to keep moving ahead by regularly releasing fresh models for our fashion-forward audience. The Venom and the Nemesis maintain the fundamental design elements of our signature Blade timepiece, yet also offer exciting new features such as carbon fiber and yellow gold.”
Just like other Blade models, the Blade Venom and the Blade Nemesis are powered by automatic mechanical movements that provide up to 42 hours of power reserve. Furthermore, the exhibition caseback allows a glimpse of the watch movement working within.
For less than $350, the Blade Venom and Blade Nemesis wristwatches present a solid value proposition. Luxurious details such as an automatic movement, the sapphire crystal, a large steel watch case, 18k yellow gold elements, genuine Italian leather straps, and so on, carry much heftier price tags on comparable models.
