Here you can see what we are working on this week in our Reykjavik workshop, assembly of the 101 38mm collection. All pictures taken this morning by our Technical Director, Sigurdur Gilbertsson, as he worked on the assembly.

During this first week of the year 2012 we are working on dials in our workshop. Our Master Watchmaker Gilbert and our Technical Director Sigurður have their hands full with Mother of Pearl dials for our 32mm 101 collection.

In 2010 we got the idea to ask the most prominent artists in Iceland to join with us in order to create something very special and to make the outcome of that creative work our contribution to KRAFTUR, a society to support young people who have been diagnosed with cancer, and their families. Now little over a year later we present two highly exclusive watches. Here are pictures from our workshop showing the assembly of one of these very special watches.

Earlyer this week our Master Watchmaker, Gilbert Ó. Guðjonsson, was teaching his grandson, Gilbert Arnar Sigurðsson, the basics of watchmaking in our workshop here in Reykjavik. They always enjoy spending time together and now the grandson is getting more and more lessons in watchmaking. Gilbert the grandson is the the third generation to be interested in the watch business.

Gilbert O. Gudjonsson is our Master Watchmaker and renowned craftsman. With his legendary concentration and 45 years of experience he inspects every single timepiece before it leaves our workshop. As a privately owned and operated company, we have the opportunity and duty to give all our timepieces the personal attention they deserve.
