Nordgreen- New chapter of Scandinavian luxury

The new chapter of Scandinavian luxury

You could have the most stylish earrings, the most elegant bracelets and the most fashionable necklaces – but we all know that the real star of your outfit is the watch. It’s the accessory which expresses the most about you and gives your entire look the perfect finish.

Let us introduce Nordgreen, a new chapter of Scandinavian luxury, now available for purchase from our online store to spice up your look with a dash of elegance.

The Copenhagen based brand refuses to follow fashion trends, they instead decided to create something more unique and definitive. Thanks to the kickstarter campaign which was one of the 10 most successful campaigns of Europe, Nordgreen became super famous in the world of Scandinavian watches last year. As a result, the brand has been getting more popular both in Europe and Asia since then.

The Nordgreen mission

The mission of Nordgreen was to create a watch which, just like your best friend, you don’t want to live a day without. No matter where you are going, what outfit you are wearing or how you are feeling – it’s a timeless essential. Out of the marriage of Scandinavian minimalism and the famous Danish quality was born their three exquisite designs: Philosopher, Infinity and Native.

PHILOSOPHER

UPTOSTYLE 5

Philosopher watches possess an asymmetrical second hand designed to remind us that there is always time to achieve things that have never been done before.

For this reason, the conical shaped case has a wider base then the face thus forming a sharp two-piece dial which drives our eyes to the center of the timepiece. This represents the now. The elevated watch case, brushed look and tugging lugs characterize the watch by giving the unique design it’s finishing touches. In addition, the interchangeable straps and size variations allow both men and women to discover their perfect style for any occasion.

INFINITY

When creating Infinity, Jacob Wagner sourced the majority of his inspiration from nature. His aim was to connect the Infinity with the evolution of nature removing all the complexity that our harmful civilization causes to Earth.

Accordingly, he left only the essentials. This minimalistic finish is exemplified by the removable lugs and sophisticated design of the hour marks. Moreover, the deep curvature of the dial represents the infiniteness of space and time – true to its namesake. All Infinity pieces are made for those who desire a style that stands out from the crowd, yet blends into their everyday life.
