Fjord

“Wherever there is water, there is life.” This maxim holds true, here on Earth anyway.

Water is the hallmark of our planet, so essential for life that it’s the very first thing we look for when exploring other planets, other worlds. On our planet, water comes in many forms. Salt or fresh, in oceans, rivers or great lakes. Or fjords, even, like the ones you’ll find in Norway.

It’s that water you’ll find in the case back
of your BRUVIK Fjord timepiece.

These steep, water-filled valleys carved out by ancient glaciers are spectacularly beautiful. Still, water is water, some might say, but isn’t there something special about a drop of water traveling down a small river in the western Norwegian mountains, about to rush over the edge of the 612 meter drop of the mighty Langefoss waterfall, down into the beautiful Aakrafjord? Isn’t that a fortunate drop of water? We would argue that it is, and that it is, in fact, water at its most beautiful. It’s that water you’ll find in the case back of your BRUVIK Fjord timepiece.

The edge of the 612 meter drop of the mighty Langefoss waterfall

Taken from a river on the very edge of the northern fjords, out of circulation, this will always be water which has seen the fjord, and nearly made it in. Like a brief moment, taken out of the flow of time, this drop represents a change of pace. A moment’s relief from the relentless ever forward flow of time. Look at your watch as you carry it through the concrete jungles that make up our urban lives. You’ll know when it’s time to see the fjords again.
