INSPIRATION

Named after Mount Aksla, the hilltop overlooking the town of Ålesund. From the 270-degree view from the terrace at the top of the hill spectators can take in the view of the coastal town below and the spectacular nature surrounding it. 

 

The view has made Mount Aksla a favorite for both locals and tourists, despite the steep stone staircase with 410 steps you must walk to get there. The breathtaking view is what inspired Von Doren’s first quartz model - would it be possible to create a wristwatch that evokes the same feelings when you glance at it?

Scandinavia has become a veritable hotbed of awesomeness so far as timepieces are concerned and so it has proven once again with Von Doren Watches, a Norwegian watchmaker that takes its influences and design inspiration from Viking culture to deliver a series of timepieces which are as bold and striking as they are well made and stylish.

“Well made and stylish”
