When it comes to watches, Daniel Wellington knows what it takes to create some of the finest in the world! Although they are fairly new to the game, what they lack in longevity they more than make up for by the quality and beauty of their product. Here is some more information about Daniel Wellington, a company that has quickly made a name for themselves for their beautiful and affordable watches:

Origins of the Daniel Wellington Company

Daniel Wellington was founded by Philip Tysander in 2011. The company?s headquarters are currently located in Stockholm, Sweden. Their mission is to create gorgeous watches and to offer them at much lower prices than their competitors. However, this hasn?t compromised the beauty and integrity of the watches. The company is named after a backpacker by the name of Daniel Wellington, whom Tysander met back in 2006 when he was hiking through Australia. Tysander immediately noticed that Wellington had secured a high end Rolex watch to a NATO band, which is a simple black nylon strap. The two actually met up several times (by chance) while they were in Australia, and Tysander couldn?t get Wellington?s watch with the makeshift military-style strap out of his mind. Over time, this moment inspired him to start his own watch company when he arrived back in Sweden.

Daniel Wellington Makes Great Watches Affordable

What?s interesting about Tysander is that Daniel Wellington?s watchband was the detail that he couldn?t get out of his mind. After some planning, he knew that he wanted to create affordable watches that had versatile watchbands and that were also beautiful. The website calls the watches ?timeless and elegant? and fans of the line are in complete agreement. The watches are actually made in China to keep production costs low. The watch?s movements are made out of quartz and the mechanism that keeps time comes from Japan. The rest of the watch?s parts are made in Shenzhen, China.

Daniel Wellington Watch Details and Styles

Daniel Wellington has watch collections for both men and women, and within these collections, there are styles to suit every lifestyle. For men, they have Classy and Dapper styles and there are options for every occasion. For women, there are also Classy and Dapper styles but they have smaller faces than the watches for men. The company also releases limited edition styles. Also, in keeping with Tysander?s original inspiration, the Daniel Wellington (DW) Company offers their customers the chance to choose their own straps. Because he was so inspired by the original Daniel Wellington?s military watchstrap, DW also has a variety of nylon straps that come in different colors for people to choose from in addition to leather straps. Even though the Daniel Wellington Watch Company has only been around since 2011, that hasn?t stopped them from creating a high quality product and offering the watches for affordable prices!
