Frequently asked questions

Is the Ming 17.01 nickel-free?

No. At least one part that touches the skin is steel, usually the caseback or the clasp, and steel carries nickel, so the guide does not list it as nickel-free.

Grade 5, as stated by the maker.

What size is the Ming 17.01?

The case is 38 mm across and 9.3 mm thick. It is water resistant to 100 m.

How much does the Ming 17.01 cost, and is it available?

It is no longer made, so the only way to buy one is used.
