RZE Unfolds an Urban Adventure with the Urbanist BubbleGum: A Rugged, Solar-Powered Watch for the Urban Lifestyle

Originally birthed in 2024, the RZE Urbanist BubbleGum Solar Field Watch swiftly became the ideal match for those navigating the urban labyrinth daily. Its design intricately dovetails simplicity and function, providing a seamless yet thrilling ownership experience. As 2025 rolls in, RZE has widened the Urbanist collection with a palette of vibrant colorways, setting hearts aflutter across the horology world.

At the forefront of the 2025 Urbanist collection is the RZE Urbanist BubbleGum – the least utilitarian aesthetic from the brand yet – embracing a light pink dial coupled with a white-finished handset. Other newcomers include the turquoise Azure Blue and all-luminous Polaris White. The novelty lies in the colors and finishing, while the core design remains true to the original blueprints.

Despite RZE’s initial intention to equip the Urbanist with a screw-down crown, concerns about the sustainability of warranty provision led to a slight redesign. The Urbanist still possesses 100 meters of water resistance, and now offers the bonus of a lifetime warranty.

Underneath the surface, the Urbanist collection is powered by the Miyota Caliber 2070 solar quartz movement. Unlike conventional light-powered watches, the Cal. 2070 locates its solar cells behind a clear chapter ring, a subtle innovation that makes a huge difference. The inclusion of a quick-start feature makes it as reliable as it is smart.

The RZE Urbanist BubbleGum Solar Field Watch is not just a module for timekeeping; it’s a chronicle of the urban rhythm, designed to celebrate the vibrancy and dynamism of city life.
