Luxury watch company Nubeo has set a course for the final frontier with the company’s first collaboration with the Star Trek franchise.
Nubeo has previously aligned with with both NASA and the classic arcade game franchise Space Invaders for themed watch designs celebrating each partnership, and now they are bringing Star Trek into their portfolio with a set of four franchise-inspired releases.
The new Nubeo x Star Trek watches are available in four colors — “Explorer Yellow,” “Danger Red,” “Warp Blue,” and “Beam Black” — and are limited to a total run 200 pieces per color (800 watches in total).
Here’s the company’s description of the new watches, which also has glow-in-the-dark elements for nighttime viewing.
Nubeo proudly announces its inaugural partnership with the iconic Star Trek franchise, marking a historic leap into the cosmos of pop culture. Introducing the Magellan Automatic Star Trek Starfleet Limited Edition—a collection that embodies the spirit of exploration, adventure, and innovation.
Each timepiece in this limited-edition collection pays homage to the intrepid spirit of Starfleet, capturing the essence of humanity’s boundless quest for discovery. With four striking variants — Explorer Yellow, Danger Red, Warp Blue, and Beam Black — the collection offers a unique blend of style and functionality. Each watch is crafted with 316L stainless steel, a hardened mineral lens with anti-reflective coating, Swiss luminous hands and indexes, and a durable rubber strap, all powered by a reliable Japanese automatic movement.
Full disclosure: Nubeo sent us one of the new watches to check out in person, and we’ve shared some photos below.
This is most certainly a men’s watch — with a heavy with a 120-gram weight and large 48mm x 17mm dimensions. It’s also, in our opinion, a bit over-designed with the various elements (especially the yellow edition), making it difficult to read the time. Of the four versions, the blue or black-and-white editions are probably the most legible… or at least, they’re more subtle than the bright yellow or red designs!
The watch and hard-case packaging include many familiar franchise assets, though there’s a bit of an odd jumble of elements from different eras: the original Star Trek series title treatment on the case and watch, a replica of The Motion Picture refit Enterprise saucer on the rear face of the watch, the 32nd century Starfleet emblem (from Star Trek: Discovery) on the watch face and edition card — and for some reason, the Enterprise-D on case’s inner artwork.
(It seems like there should have been a bit more direction there from the Star Trek licensing team.)
Like most of the company’s watches, also has a luxury-level price point: it retails for $940, which is a big ask and clearly puts it out of reach for most collectors. It’s also a little disappointing that there isn’t a women’s-sized variant of the design, with smaller dimensions. Nubeo’s announcement calls this an “inaugural” partnership with the Star Trek franchise, so perhaps that may come in a later release.
If this type of high-end wristwatch is your kind of thing, though, you can order one of the new Star Trek watches at Nubeo’s website starting today.
