Tidslinje 42
Form
meets function
Our understanding of time has always evolved alongside the tools we’ve used to measure it - from early calendars to modern mechanical watchmaking.
Named after the Danish word for “Timeline,” the TIDSLINJE 42 collection builds on that legacy, combining mechanical precision, durable materials, and contemporary design in a modern take on the classic calendar watch.

A practical take
on classic watch complications
Visually, the subdial layout on TIDSLINJE 42 is inspired by chronographs, but instead of timing events, the focus is on clarity and daily functionality. Unlike a chronograph, the central seconds hand sweeps fluidly across the dial, bringing a sense of motion and life to the display.
Built
for daily wear
Both the case, bracelet, and clasp are treated with a special HV1200 surface coating, giving the entire watch excellent scratch resistance. With a hardness close to 1200 Vickers, it holds up impressively well to daily wear and tear.
Paired with 20 ATM water resistance, Super-LumiNova BL 10 X1 for reliable low-light visibility, TIDSLINJE 42 is designed to perform, and look good doing it - in any setting.
Premium series
9122 Automatic movement
TIDSLINJE 42 is powered by an automatic movement, the Premium-Series Miyota 9122 movement.
The movement has a power reserve of 42 hours, and is a high-beat movement with a beat-rate of 28.800 BPH
IT's ALL ABOUT
the details
Every element has been refined to create a harmonious interplay between brushed and polished surfaces. This meticulous attention to detail is evident in the chamfered edges on the bracelet, bezel, and lugs.
The box-shaped sapphire crystal adds depth and creates subtle edge distortions - a retro-inspired detail that adds character. The raised box profile allows more space for the hands, helping keep the case height to a minimum despite the advanced complication.
The crown’s color-matched insert and tone-matched date display seamlessly complement the watch’s cohesive design.
Triple Calendar
at a Glance
TIDSLINJE 42 features a full triple calendar display.
The left subdial shows weekdays as numbers from 1 to 7, the right subdial shows the month, and the framed date window at 6 o’clock displays the current date.
It’s a clean, balanced layout that provides all the essential calendar information at a glance, practical for everyday planning without adding visual clutter.

Our DNA
Form follows function
We are proud of our Danish design heritage, which is the source of inspiration behind our designs.
We strive to create unique timepieces with a classic yet timeless design that will stand the test of time. Our design philosophy is rooted in the 1920’s “Bauhaus” design philosophy, where form follows function.
Did you know...
In our opinion, a great design is not purely limited to aesthetics.
That is why we only use high-quality materials, such as sapphire crystal, in our products– instead of cheaper and less durable alternatives, like mineral glass.
We are a small family-run Danish micro brand with a global reach.
Our passion is to bring something new to the table - to create timepieces with a unique aesthetic, solidly rooted in our Danish design heritage.
We often say “We do not do homages” and it is a rule we live by every day in our design disciplines. We strongly believe in order to bring something new to a century old industry, we genuinely have to think outside the box: whether that being new dial layouts, case shapes, materials or manufacturing methods.
The name “Henry Archer” is a direct translation of the name of our founder and product designer Henrik Schødt, who comes from a background in the 3D- and product-visualization industry, where he has spent close to two decades working for some of the worlds biggest brands.
Our design philosophy is rooted in the 1920’s “Bauhaus” design philosophy, where form follows function.
To this very day these are keywords that are the pillars of the world famous "Scandinavian minimalism” that has influenced architecture and many other industries around the world.
In our view, a great design comes from using clean lines and pure geometric forms.
All of the above allows the design to “breathe” and bring out the surface finishing and materials used.
