Inspired by the iconic clocks in the Stockholm metro system, the unisex watches are clean, elegant and undeniably Scandinavian in style. The Cate & Nelson Watches by Cate Högdahl & Nelson Ruiz-Acal, which are numbered, reflect the sobriety and honesty of Scandinavian design, with nothing else but the most important details needed to be a fully functional tool.

To give the watch both more character and functionality, the crown was rotated 45º.
