Hi! I’m Chris

A husband, father of two, photographer, designer and art historian based in northern Sweden, with a lifelong fascination for watches stretching back almost thirty years. From my first Casio DW290 to my grail piece, a Rolex 5513 with a spider dial.

Growing up in northern Sweden I was surrounded by long winters, endless summer light, lakes, forests and mountains. These landscapes taught me to appreciate solitude, endurance and the importance of well-made things.

When I’m not working, I’m usually outdoors. Running quiet trails, cycling through forests, long gravel roads or exploring the terrain that’s been home for as long as I can remember. And no matter where I go, I always bring a camera. It’s as essential to me as the watch on my wrist.

I’m a vintage lover at heart and although I enjoy modern mechanical things, the past is where it’s at. You could say I live by the Japanese view of Wabi-Sabi, that perfection is found in the imperfections.
