Neminus is a Singaporean watch microbrand founded in 2017 by Perry Khor. Operating out of Singapore, the brand established its identity by focusing on imaginative, theme-driven timepieces that balance bold aesthetics with robust technical specifications. The founders personally oversee production and testing in Switzerland to ensure that their watches meet high standards of craftsmanship and durability.
Enthusiasts are drawn to Neminus for their “UTOPIA” design philosophy, which prioritizes unique visual concepts and the use of high-quality, resilient materials. Collectors appreciate the brand’s ability to create conversation-starting pieces that feature complex 3D-textured dials and specialized finishes like Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coatings and marine-grade stainless steel. The combination of Swiss-made or reliable Japanese movements with affordable price points has made the brand a notable name in the independent watch community.
The brand’s catalog is highlighted by several key collections: – Spaceman Collection: Launched as the brand’s debut series in 2018, this collection pays tribute to space exploration. It includes the Earth Dweller, Moon Explorer, and Mars Traveler models. These Swiss-made automatic dive watches are characterized by 5mm thick sapphire crystals, rocket-nozzle shaped crowns, and 3D-printed planetary elements on the dials. Each model features a specific space exploration quote engraved on the caseback and a spherical sapphire window providing a “galaxy view.”
– Master Diver 1000 Series: This collection represents the brand’s foray into high-specification tool watches designed for professional and extreme diving. These timepieces feature an impressive 1,000-meter water resistance rating and a helium escape valve. A signature design element of this series is the “cracked-seabed” dial texture, which reinforces the brand’s commitment to bold, industrial aesthetics.
– 4th Dimension Series: Known for its architectural influence, this series utilizes industrial materials like high-density concrete and brass. The standout feature is a spiral staircase dial where each step represents an hour, creating a three-dimensional depth that departs from traditional flat watch designs.
