There’s something about wearing a classically styled watch that is both elegant and sophisticated. Nordgreen Watches offered to let me try one of their Danish-designed watches and I happily obliged.
Scandinavian simplicity
Nordgreen’s watches are designed to be minimalistic with clean, sophisticated, and simple lines. Each watch can be purchased with interchangeable bands as a bundle. I chose the Philosopher style with a gray leather band.
Nordgreen’s give-back program
Once your watch arrives, find the serial number engraved on the back of the watch’s face and the identification number on the certificate of authenticity. Then, type them into a form on the give-back page of the Nordgreen website. It’s listed in the manual. It allows you to choose which cause Nordgreen will donate to.
The company is located in Copenhagen. I was concerned at first when my order would arrive and was pleased when it showed up within days.
The Philosopher watch
I chose the Philosopher design which has a sleek, flat face and an analog display. It attracted me because it’s minimalistic and classy.
It has a silver watch face with a gray leather strap. The Philosopher can also be purchased in rose gold, gunmetal, and gold. You can interchange the straps which come in an assortment of colors in leather, vegan leather, mesh, or nylon.
Each watch is water-resistant, meaning it’s splash-proof. Don’t go swimming with it on. The movement is Japanese Quartz.
The designer
Jakob Wagner is the in-house designer for Nordgreen Watches. He has worked with top jewelry companies like Alessi, Bang & Olufsen, Cappellini, and Moroso.
Eco-conscious
All Nordgreen purchases come in sustainable packaging, the facilities are carbon-neutral, and responsible manufacturing is practiced.
Nordgreen Watches are available for both women and men and make gorgeous gifts. You can build gift bundles by choosing a watch face along with several straps.

I received a watch from Nordgreen in exchange for this review but all my opinions are my own.
