The Obaku Mineral V301LXVWMV is a refined expression of Scandinavian minimalism, where geometric precision meets feminine elegance. Encased in a distinctive 25mm square stainless steel case with rose gold IP plating, this Danish-designed timepiece features a luminous mother-of-pearl dial adorned with a single diamond marker at 12 o'clock. The clean white dial surface is complemented by slender rose gold-toned hands, creating a subtle contrast that epitomises understated luxury. At Cassim & Co., we are proud to be an authorised retailer for Obaku, bringing these exceptional Scandinavian designs to discerning South African collectors.
Powered by a precision Japanese quartz movement, the Mineral collection exemplifies Obaku's philosophy of functional beauty. The square case shape—a departure from traditional round watch architecture—is both contemporary and timeless, while the rose gold PVD coating ensures lasting lustre and resistance to daily wear. The watch is secured by an integrated stainless steel mesh bracelet with matching rose gold IP finish, offering both comfort and adjustability. Protected by extra-hardened mineral crystal glass, the dial is safeguarded against scratches while maintaining perfect clarity. Those seeking to explore the full range of these Scandinavian masterpieces can browse our full range of OBAKU watches at our Johannesburg location.
With a water resistance rating of 3 ATM (30 metres), this timepiece is designed for everyday elegance rather than aquatic pursuits—suitable for handwashing and light splashes, but not for swimming or showering. The square case measures 25mm across, a proportionally refined dimension that sits beautifully on the wrist without overwhelming smaller frames. The mesh bracelet, measuring 14mm at the case attachment and tapering to 12mm, provides exceptional flexibility and breathability. Our team at our Mall of the South boutique can assist with professional bracelet sizing to ensure the perfect fit, and our watch servicing and repairs team is always available for future battery replacements and maintenance needs.
The Obaku Mineral V301LXVWMV represents exceptional value in the premium fashion watch segment, combining genuine diamond detailing with mother-of-pearl artistry and rose gold PVD finishing—elements typically found in pieces at significantly higher price points. The mother-of-pearl dial exhibits natural iridescence that shifts subtly in changing light conditions, ensuring that no two viewing angles are quite the same. This watch is an ideal choice for professionals seeking a versatile timepiece that transitions effortlessly from boardroom to evening engagements, or for those who appreciate Scandinavian design principles applied to horology. With nationwide delivery available across South Africa and the assurance of genuine Obaku quality, this Mineral collection piece offers both aesthetic distinction and reliable timekeeping performance.

Q: How often will the battery need replacing?

Q: Can the mesh bracelet be adjusted to fit my wrist?
A: Absolutely. The stainless steel mesh bracelet features an adjustable clasp system that can be fine-tuned for a precise fit. Our team at Cassim & Co. can assist with professional sizing at the time of purchase.
Q: What does the rose gold IP plating mean for durability?
A: IP (Ion Plating) is an advanced PVD coating process that bonds the rose gold finish to the stainless steel at a molecular level, providing superior durability and resistance to fading, tarnishing, and wear compared to traditional plating methods.

Q: Will the mother-of-pearl dial change appearance over time?
A: No, genuine mother-of-pearl is an extremely stable material that maintains its natural iridescence indefinitely. The subtle colour shifts you observe are due to changing light angles, not deterioration—this is a permanent characteristic of this precious material.
