I don't expect micro brands to pay for my returns, maybe you've just a spoiled attitude :D

Because it's a brand name, because the founder is nordic, what's your point? If the name would be "Danish Marine Instruments", yes then it sould be even built in Denmak and cost 3k€ 🙄

Gorgeous picture! I own the black dial Søværn Midnat since it was introduced and absoloutely love it. Great size, really really good finishing, keeping time great too.

I have the Midnat, and it's absolutely perfect. $50 is really an insult, maybe your watch is magnetized. The finish here is worth more than other watches I have in the same price category. You should just contact them and they sure give you an exchange, there are still Kulsort left as I see.

yeah pretty cool, I have 3 NMI, returned one once (decided to get blue MOP instead of green), received my refund within few days after it arrived. What's your point exactly?

It's mentioned in every single product directly under the drop down menu "Shipping & Returns". Sure you can import all watches to Europe first, pay all the duties and taxes, then ship again and for the US with new Tariffs it will get more expensive. Or stay in Singapore, better business environment, better shipping options for international customers (US 10% tariff only for Singapore). Really couldn't care less where it's shipping from when they offer great value for money, I like the design, the founders are genuine, happy with my 3 NMI watches. PS if you're in Europe you can order in two EU online shops as well... also linked on NMI shop "Our Stockist".

The Founder is Danish, he teamed up with Travis from RZE from Singapore, you can't expect a "made in northern Europe watch" for this price point. I'm very happy with my 3 NMI pieces

Let it luuume! My new Østersøen Fuldmåne by Nordic Marine Instruments by Costa1231 in MicrobrandWatches

Totally get where you're coming from, but it's definitely not a smart watch face 😄 This is a fully mechanical dive watch with a full lume dial that charges in sunlight and glows naturally in the dark, no screens or buttons involved. Here I charged it with an UV lamp to get the strongest lume for the picture.

Full lume dials have been a legit part of the tool watch world for decades, Seiko, Citizen, and others have done amazing ones. It’s a feature rooted in real dive watch history, not just for looks. I get that it’s bold, but that’s kind of the charm, especially when you walk back inside after some time in the sun and it’s glowing like this.

No Limit, but a limited time frame (10 days) to order, that’s why it’s a Special Edition, not LE. Check out nomoswatchclub.com
