Description

The Balder is a handmade Viking wooden watch built around the Helm of Awe, the Aegishjalmur, an Old Norse stave worn for protection and courage. Its dial is ringed with a full circle of Norse runes, and the back cover can be engraved with your own name, date or Norse saying. A precise Japanese Miyota movement sits inside a natural bamboo case, so no two pieces are exactly alike.
