Nordgreen burst onto the watch scene, launching a hugely successful Kickstarter campaign in January 2018. Their, $200,000+ Kickstarter shot them well and truly to the top of the hugely popular and still developing, minimalist watch design niche, putting them in direct competition with the likes of Daniel Wellington.

Their brand is about more than just beautiful, aesthetically pleasing watches, they have a giving back program, where for each watch purchased they will donate to one of three causes: health (providing clean water), environment (protecting the rainforests), and education (educating the future).

Want to be in with a chance of winning one of the flawlessly elegant Nordgreen watches for sale on their website now? We are currently hosting a giveaway which will allow one lucky Fupping contributor and one lucky Fupping reader to take home their very own watch. Find out more about this competition here.

ABOUT THE COMPANY

PHILOSOPHER WATCH REVIEW

Complete and comprehensive review of the ‘Philosopher – Gun Metal | Mesh | 36mm‘ watch from Nordgreen.



OVERALL QUALITY

Quality matters, whether it’s food, clothing or watches, you don’t want to be skipping on it. The ‘Philosopher – Gun Metal | Mesh | 36mm’ watch from Nordgreen is nothing but exceptional when it comes to quality. The mesh strapping is light, but durable (we sure tested it), the finish on the face is flawelss and the dials easy to use.

For a watch priced at around £170 it sure blows the compeition out of the water on quality.

THE FACE

Movement: The movement is flawless and reliable, it sports a Japanese Quartz 2 handed movement. The battery life is surprisingly long and it tends not to gain more than 5 seconds a month, which for the average non-nuclear engineer, is negligible.

Face: The face is minimalist and clean. It has the Nordgreen logo on the face, which is not something I am personally a fan of, but Nordgreen manages to do it in a way that is not ‘in your face.’ There are no errors in the application of the hours or minute marks, and the watch has clearly been created with love. The finish is clean, stylish and very minimalist.

THE STRAP

The metal strap on the Philosopher – Gun Metal | Mesh | 36mm, is one of the best-made straps I have ever seen. It is durable, well put together and the clasp works perfectly. It is easy to adjust to any sized wrist making it the ideal unisex watch strap.

INFINITY WATCH REVIEW

Complete and comprehensive review of the ‘Infinity – Rose Gold | Black Leather | 40mm‘ watch from Nordgreen.

OVERALL QUALITY

If you’re looking for a watch that is slightly bigger, then the ‘Infinity – Rose Gold | Black Leather | 40mm,’ is a perfect watch for you. It’s a little bigger than the ‘Philosopher – Gun Metal | Mesh | 36mm,’ and so makes for a more striking accessory. As far as quality goes, it’s exceptional. Nothing from Nordgreen that we have reviewed is anything but flawlessly designed.

The larger rose gold face gives it a more classical aura without seeming stuffy or old-fashioned. It works perfectly with a gray or black suit, providing a bit of contrast.

THE FACE

Movement: The movement is smooth and methodical (obviously). The bigger face and long arms on the ‘Infinity – Rose Gold | Black Leather | 40mm,’ make it a lot more elegant looking.

Face: I personally prefer the larger face of the ‘Infinity – Rose Gold | Black Leather | 40mm,’ to the ‘Philosopher – Gun Metal | Mesh | 36mm,’ just because it’s a lot easier to read at a glance. This being said, the ‘Infinity – Rose Gold | Black Leather | 40mm,’ does not have a date, but to me, that’s a small sacrifice for the cleaner, larger face.

THE STRAP

It’s always refreshing to get back to classics as far as watch straps go. No flashy buckles, just black leather. The watch straps are impeccably designed and match the watch itself well.
