About us
Nordic Watches mainly buys and sells vintage wristwatches. There is something for every budget in our wide selection.
Watches can be found from the most affordable basic watches all the way to rare and valuable collector's pieces. Our selection also includes vintage bracelets, straps, watch boxes and other products for the watch enthusiasts. In addition to selling watches and accessories, we also strive to publish blog posts related to watches and them as a hobby at a steady pace. In our blog, we also focus on the history of vintage watches and the stories of watch enthusiasts.
—In the midst of today's disposable culture and mass-produced goods, old watches bring peace and permanence, a feeling that high-quality objects and their history and stories will be well-kept from generation to generation.—
I have always liked history and stories, but my interest in wristwatches was sparked only through an heirloom watch. As I delved into the world of watches through collecting, I became especially interested in vintage watches and the idea of working with watches started to interest me more and more all the time. In the end, the decision to start the business was easy and Nordic Watches started in the summer of 2020.
—Vintage watches are like time capsules in which the stories of the previous owners are recorded with traces. They tell about the innovations of their era, as well as reflect the fashion and style trends of the society of the time—
I buy and sell the watches, pack and send you your purchase, and produce content for all our channels from here in Lahti. In addition to great products and a pleasant shopping experience, I want to offer our customers a trip to the interesting world of vintage watches, as well as help and know-how to problems and questions that inevitably arise, especially in the early stages of the hobby. I am grateful that I get to work on a topic that is dear to me, and I hope it will also be passed on to everyone who visits our online store.
With the joint stock company established at the end of 2023, Lassi Kaikkonen, who collects vintage watches and is especially familiar with chronographs and finnish watch brands, came to support the operation. Inspired by his long-standing hobby, he occasionally writes on our blog, and with the help of his extensive network, he also actively participates in buying watches and searching for new treasures. In addition, he brings to the company his years of experience and know-how in product design, as well as a strong vision of company and brand development.
