With a mission to enthuse, surprise and inspire the style conscious through timeless Scandinavian watch design, Georg Jensen watches combine expert craftsmanship and absolute precision to deliver a range of designer watches contemporary lovers have always wanted. It is their artistic boldness, superior craftsmanship and creative collaborations that separate them from everyone else in the industry alongside their experienced and rich heritage.
Since their founding in 1904, the Danish design house have created a breathtaking range of Georg Jensen watches, Scandinavian silverware, accessories and home décor. Founder, Georg Jensen, was only 37 years old when he established his brand. With both an apprenticeship as a goldsmith and sculptor behind him, he made silver his way of living with fine craftsmanship understanding and an appreciation for material bringing to life his artistic sense of form. Throughout his childhood, Georg Jensen grew up close to forests and lakes just north of Copenhagen. The memories that he saved would become significant in his designs with symbols of the natural world and organic shapes weaving their way into Georg Jensen jewellery and watches.
With the highest standards set, the manufacture of Georg Jensen watches would attract some of the industry’s greatest artists and designs. From Henning Koppel to Vivianna Torun Bülow-Hübe, Georg Jensen partnered with some of the greats to push the boundaries and defy convention of typical designer watch design. Georg Jensen’s philosophy for providing only the best has kept on even after his death in 1935. The Georg Jensen watches that we see today are a testimony to the brand’s attention to detail, expert craftsmanship and artistic excellence that has made them so legendary. Let’s take a look at some of the latest Georg Jensen watch collections in more detail.
Georg Jensen Koppel Watches
Epitomising Scandinavian watch design at its best, the Georg Jensen Koppel watch collection was created in collaboration with Henning Koppel in 1978. Koppel trained as sculptor and began working alongside Georg Jensen back in 1946, and together they set out on a quest to make everyday life products beautiful as well as practical. The Georg Hensen Koppel watch with its minimalist and fluent lines has become a classic in the brand’s watch collections.
There are a huge range of Georg Jensen Koppel watches for men and Georg Jensen Koppel watches for women to choose from promising absolute precision with their choice of automatic or quartz movements. The strong, geometric lines of the case perfectly compliment the understated dials decorated with a stunning selection of complications including subsidiary seconds, annual date calendars, GMT hands and power reserve indicators.

Georg Jensen Vivianna Watches
First produced in 1967, the Georg Jensen Vivianna watch collection has become one of the Danish watch manufacturers most iconic designs for women. The range was designed by Vivianna Torun Bülow-Hübe and has become legendary for its sculptural shapes crafted from rose gold, stainless steel and diamonds that confuse the boundaries between jewellery and watches. Its most distinctive feature is its unique ‘strap’ that sits on the wrist like a bangle for a relaxed and contemporary look.
As well as showcasing a characteristic case and bangle strap, the dials of the Georg Jensen Vivianna watches are impossible to miss. From simplistic black dials decorated with rose gold hands to highly reflective mirror dials that capture and reflect the light beautifully to breathtaking diamond set pave embellished dials, the Georg Jensen Vivianna is the perfect designer watch for women who aren’t afraid to capture the attention of everyone around them.

Georg Jensen Concave Watches
Another incredible selection of designer watches for women, the Georg Jensen Concave watch collection has been designed in collaboration with Swiss designer Nicolas Barth Nussbaumer to challenge the traditional design of the modern watch for the resolutely strong and feminine woman. The dial, case and lugs are all integrated as one to give the impression of a single form, a form that moulds effortlessly and comfortably to the wrist thanks to the addition of a dainty leather strap or metal bracelet.
The dials of the Georg Jensen Concave watches are also stunning for their understated aesthetic and brushed steel sunray detailing. Simplicity at its best, the quartz movements provide classic hour and minute hands and can be complimented by the choice of an unmissable diamond decorated bezel. These breathtaking Georg Jensen watches for women are the ultimate expression of elegance and femininity, firmly approved by the brand’s iconic minimalistic Danish heritage.
