Follow us on insta and FB to be updated on brands and details for the event!

Valhalla of Norway is an Norwegian brand with watches, sunglasses and accessories. Inspired by Norse mythology. Started up in 2013, by Roy Klokk. Who after 16 years in the watch business wanted to start his own brand. The Idea for the brand Roy got while he was manager at Hotel Valhalla in Fredrikstad. He was looking for a good Norwegian name, that was well known outside of Norway. Though the hotel guests, he learned that Valhalla and Vikings were something many people know and associate with Norway. Also with company address in Valhallsgate the pieces fell into place. Late 2013 the first watch was ready.

Valhalla have chosen to make quality watches, all cases and band are made of stainless steel. The leather band are made of genuine leather. Movement they use is Japan quartz and automatic from Citizen/miyota.

A short A short introduction of the brands that will come to OSLO SWAP MEET 26/10, let me introduce the Norwegian brand Aigi watches!
Follow us on insta and FB to be updated on brands and details for the event!

2017: Three Norwegian men, a shared passion for watches, a desire to create something of their own, and a goal to take a Norwegian watch brand out into the world.

For us, Norway is in many ways defined by the presence or absence of light in spectacular nature. Most of our watch dials are inspired by the many unique light conditions one is spoiled with in Norway, and we are fascinated by how these, in their own way, create an experience of time. We want you to be excited to read the time and hope you find a watch that does just that in our collections. Our goal is to create watches in quality materials at an unbeatable price with a finish typically found in higher price ranges.

We design and develop everything in Norway, while production takes place abroad. We search worldwide for high-quality components, including stainless surgical steel, scratch-resistant sapphire glass with anti-reflective coating on the inside. Miyota, Seiko, Ronda, or Sellita movements from Japan/Malaysia or Switzerland. Swiss Super-LumiNova® and full-grain leather from Italy or Horween leather from.

A short introduction of the brands that will come to OSLO SWAP MEET 26/10, let me introduce the Swedish GoS Watches!
Follow us on insta and FB to be updated on brands and details for the event!

GoS Watches, began as a partnership between the master bladesmith Johan Gustafsson and master watchmaker Patrik Sjögren. They first met in 2007 and soon realized that they both share a deep passion for their respective crafts and for the ancient Scandinavian craft tradition.

The process of hand-forging Damascus steel results in every forged piece containing patterns with a different character and personality. This means that every GoS watch is truly one of a kind and a piece of art. Since the summer of 2021, Patrik Sjögren is the sole owner of GoS and the Damascus steel is now produced by another Swedish master bladesmith - Mr. Conny Persson.

A deep passion for their crafts and for the ancient Scandinavian craft tradition has always been the core of GoS values. The Scandinavian craft tradition is included in all parts of the GoS concept from the presentation boxes, accessories such as knives and pens, and naturally the watches themselves. Starting from 2015, GoS provide straps that are made from locally produced Moose-leather (Älg in Swedish). Another Swedish traditional handcraft was added during 2019 with presentation boxes in Swedish Crystal and then also transparent index ring made in the same handcrafted material.

Scandinavian nature and history are key sources of inspiration when the different elements of the GoS watches are designed. One example of this is the series Nordic Seasons, which shows the contrasts of the seasons in Scandinavia with one color scheme for each season. Another example is the Northern Lights which has been used as inspiration for the Aurora watch. GoS has also revived ancient decoration patterns from the Viking ages and included them in the dials and other parts. The GoS watch hands have been designed with such patterns in mind and are handmade and hand-finished by Patrik Sjögren.
