Swatch SUSN418 Nothing Basic Chronograph Black Dial Blue Silicone Strap

The Swatch SUSN418 “Nothing Basic About Blue” is a striking example of the brand’s bold chronograph designs, housed in a matte blue bioceramic case that measures 42mm across and 14.03mm thick. The integrated structure lightweight yet robust pairs with a textured silicone strap in tonal blue, creating a cohesive visual profile that emphasizes wearability and style.

Under the dial, the SUSN418 runs on a Swiss quartz chronograph movement, delivering precise timekeeping with added stopwatch functionality. The subdials are arranged in classic tri-compax layout seconds at 6 o’clock, 60-minute totalizer at 9, and 1/10 second counter at 3 each set against a deep matte dial with white indexes and sharp black and orange highlights. The date aperture is discreetly positioned at 4 o’clock, maintaining balance without disrupting the symmetrical display.

The Swatch signature pushers and crown in contrast black resin enhance tactile feedback, while the scratch-resistant acrylic glass dome preserves clarity. With a 30-meter water resistance rating, it withstands light splashes but remains a casual, urban-oriented timepiece at heart.

True to its name, the SUSN418 is anything but basic infusing Swatch’s signature playfulness with utility through its chronograph complication, lightweight bioceramic build, and contemporary monochrome palette. A vibrant choice for everyday timing.
