Product Story
A modern evolution of one of Victorinox's most recognisable watch families, the I.N.O.X. Quartz 242085 combines the rugged character of the original I.N.O.X. with a cleaner, more versatile 41mm design.
Engineered and manufactured in Switzerland, the stainless-steel case features a combination of brushed surfaces and a polished-brushed fixed bezel with an anti-scratch treatment. The metallic sunray-brushed dial adds refinement, while raised indices, luminous hands and a date display at 6 o'clock keep the design practical and immediately legible.
The distinctive green rubber strap gives reference 242085 its personality and incorporates Victorinox's tool-free interchangeable strap system, allowing the watch to move easily between work, weekends and outdoor use.
But the I.N.O.X. name still means serious resilience. This generation features double anti-shock protection, magnetic resistance and 200 metres of water resistance. Victorinox confirms that the new 41mm quartz models are ISO-certified for water resistance, anti-shock protection and antimagnetic performance.
Powered by a dependable Swiss Ronda 715 quartz movement, this is a contemporary I.N.O.X. designed to retain the toughness of the collection while becoming slimmer, more refined and easier to wear every day.

The Heritage
From Ibach to a Global Swiss Icon
Add Victorinox Heritage Image
Victorinox began in 1884 when Karl Elsener I opened his cutler's workshop in Ibach-Schwyz, Switzerland. The company would go on to create the Original Swiss Army Knife™, establishing a design language built around usefulness, precision and preparedness.
Victorinox entered watchmaking in 1989. Today its timepieces are manufactured in the company's Watch Competence Centre in Delémont, Switzerland, carrying that engineering heritage into a very different kind of Swiss tool.

The Victorinox Design DNA
From Swiss Army Knife to Swiss Watch
Victorinox does not simply place its shield on a watch. Across collections such as I.N.O.X. and Journey 1884, details are deliberately influenced by the forms, materials and engineering heritage of the Swiss Army Knife™.
That connection gives the watches a recognisable character: functional rather than decorative for its own sake, with thoughtful construction and an emphasis on versatility.

I.N.O.X.
Add I.N.O.X. Image
I.N.O.X. has become one of the defining names in modern Victorinox watchmaking. Manufactured in Delémont, the collection combines strong case geometry, high-quality components and materials selected for dependable everyday performance.
Victorinox describes the case geometry of the current I.N.O.X. family as being influenced by the carving action of the Swiss Army Knife™, creating a direct visual link between two sides of the brand.

Choosing Your Watch
Specifications Vary by Model
Victorinox collections include different movements, case sizes, crystals, materials, functions and levels of water resistance. The range includes both quartz and mechanical watches.
We therefore list the exact technical specification on each Marcus Tempus product page rather than applying one specification to the entire Victorinox collection.
Swiss Made Quality
Made and Tested in Delémont
Victorinox states that its watches use Swiss Made movements from established Swiss manufacturers including Ronda and Sellita. The movements are cased and tested in Delémont, where each timepiece undergoes more than one hundred quality checks covering precision, water resistance and endurance.
