Our answer to the perfect diving watch
With NORDLYS, the mission has been clear from the start: to include the best facets of Danish design – minimalism, function and quality.

quality
It's all about the details
Around the surfaces of the watch case, you will be able to observe a material finish of the highest quality, which matches brands in much higher price ranges. A material finish that balances between brushed and polished steel – the raw and the refined.
The hour markers and hands are covered with luminescent BGW9 lumious from Swiss Super-LumiNova®, which after a day in the sun lights up in the dark.
Hence the name "Northern Lights".
NORDLYS can withstand the equivalent of 200 meters / 20 ATM water pressure.
With its stylish design and high quality, NORDLYS is the watch that has both the look and the specifications needed when it matters - whether it's for the trip into the deep, a day at the office or for the festive season.
automatic movement
Pure mechanics
We have equipped NORDLYS with an automatic movement, and the watch is thus recharged by the energy created when you move your arm throughout the day.
The movement in NORDLYS is a Premium Miyota 9015 movement, which has an ultra-thin profile, which has enabled us to make a watch with a thickness of just 11 mm. Perfect for when the watch has to fit under the shirt sleeve.
The 9015 movement has a high frequency of 28,800 bph, which means that the seconds hand ticks fluidly and elegantly across the markings on the dial.

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 watches with a classic yet timeless design that will stand the test of time. Our design philosophy is rooted in the "Bauhaus" design philosophy of the 1920s, where form follows function .
Did you know…
In our opinion, good design is not only limited to the visuals.
That's why we only use high-quality materials, such as sapphire glass, in our products – instead of cheaper and less durable alternatives such as 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 watches with a unique aesthetic, firmly rooted in our Danish design heritage.
We are of the opinion that a cool outfit is never complete without a nice, classic watch.
All of our watches are designed from scratch in our design studio in Aarhus, and all designs are 100% original.
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 worked for some of the world's biggest brands for two decades.
We are proud of our Danish design heritage, which is the source of the inspiration behind our designs.
Danish design is characterized by a clear connection between function, design and the use of quality materials , and these are the 3 keywords that define our company's DNA.
The inspiration for our designs comes from the 1920s "Bauhaus" design style, which we combine with modern minimalism and production methods.
This results in a timeless design that has its justification both now and in the future.
