Philosophy

Scandinavian-esque

The Scandinavian design language is clean, functional, and sophisticated. E.C.Andersson Watch Co was founded on these principles and has evolved to its own branch, adding forms and ideas beyond the conventional.

Having its head office in Gothenburg, E.C.Andersson Watch Co is based in the center of Scandinavia, surrounded by the natural beauty of the northern climate. The salty ocean winds are a constant reminder of the relentless Northern Sea pushing its waves up Sweden’s rocky shores, met by the breathing pine forests howling of natural wildlife.

Watch atelier

E.C.Andersson Watch Co’s key models are made in the brand’s workshop in Gothenburg, mostly without the need of outsourcing. Cases, dials, and case-backs are crafted from blocks of metal with our hands and tools, as well as surface treatments, coloring and engraving. Other components are custom-designed and just as unique to the brand; such as screws, sapphires, and gaskets. Our independence has been made possible thanks to a never-ending strive to gather competence, machines, and tools on-site.

Designed to be used

All E.C.Andersson watches are equipped with reliable mechanical movements and made to be used in a variety of environments, featuring sapphire crystals, screw-down crowns, and at least one weatherproof strap option per model. Since we’re making parts ourselves, most can be reproduced for service in-house. This ensures consistent quality and longevity of each watch.
