Product Details
Product Details
The Onyx is a matte black quartz watch for men. Dial, octagonal 316L stainless steel case and integrated strap are finished in one unified black, with genuine sapphire crystal on top. It costs AED 600 (about USD 163), making it the most accessible watch in the Verso Parnell collection.
Why the Onyx Stands Out
- All-black matte design: dial, case and strap read as one object.
- Octagonal case in 316L stainless steel with a matte black finish.
- Genuine sapphire crystal (Mohs 9), rare on black watches at this price.
- Quartz movement: accurate, no winding, battery lasts about 2 to 3 years.
- 5 ATM water resistance.

Why a Matte Black Watch
A black watch for men works like a well-cut dark suit: nothing competes for attention, so the wearer stands out instead. The Onyx removes contrast between dial, case and strap, which makes it easy to wear with black tie, streetwear, gym clothes or a kandura. It is the definition of stealth luxury. Read our guide to matte black watches.
More Watch Than the Price Suggests
Most all-black watches under USD 200 use mineral glass that scratches quickly and basic steel. The Onyx uses genuine sapphire crystal and a 316L stainless steel case, so it stays clear and resists corrosion for years. Add an octagonal case, a quartz movement that needs almost no maintenance and a handcrafted wooden presentation box, and it becomes a smart first luxury watch or an easy gift for him.

Highly recommended! My favorite brand
I love this watch, very nice quality and looks more expensive then it is, already received many compliments. Good communication from the company, was able to provide regular updates regarding the progress of my order, over all very happy with my purchase
I wasn't familiar with Verso Parnell before ordering, so I was a little hesitant. The watch arrived in premium packaging, felt much heavier than I expected, and the finishing honestly surprised me. I've already had three people ask where I bought it.
I own a few watches already, but this has become my daily choice. The white dial gives it such a refined look,
Wore it to a dinner in Dubai Marina and two friends thought it was a watch worth several thousand dollars. Definitely exceeded my expectations.
Every time the sunlight hits the dial, it looks like a completely different watch. Easily one of the best-looking pieces I've owned.
Bought this as a birthday gift for myself. Zero regrets. The entire experience, from ordering to unboxing, felt premium.
As someone who appreciates watchmaking, I was pleasantly surprised by the finishing and overall attention to detail. The quality is excellent for the price point, and it's already become part of my weekly rotation.
This has become my daily watch. Clean design, premium feel and goes with everything.
Looks even better in person.
