Official collaboration
On Earth Day 2025 (April 22nd, 3PM CEST), we launch Earthrise - a limited edition watch inspired by our planet’s most iconic view from space. Created in collaboration with WWF Denmark, 25% of all sales go to support their work to protect our wild nature.
Available for a limited time only.
The Greatest Design Ever Made
With its breathtaking beauty and intricate engineering, nature has inspired design throughout human history... But this very nature is disappearing at an alarming rate. Just like a clockwork, nature is a delicate, interconnected system. Remove just one small part — and everything can could fall apart.
That’s why we’ve teamed up with WWF Denmark to create a watch that honors and supports our planet - the greatest design ever made. We call it Earth rise. Inspired by the iconic view of our world from space, it reminds us of what we stand to lose—and what we must protect.
For every watch sold, 25% goes to WWF Denmark to help restore and protect nature, ensuring that its beauty and ingenuity continue to inspire generations to come.
▸ Inspired by Earth
In 1968, astronauts aboard Apollo 8 captured a view no one had seen before: Earth, rising above the lunar horizon.
This image — known as Earthrise — became a symbol of fragility, unity, and responsibility.
It later helped inspire Earth Day, and now, a watch designed to remind us of what we must protect.
SUPPORTING OUR PLANET
For every watch sold 25% is donated to WWF Denmark to help restore and protect nature
Earthrise 2025 edition
The dial features a planet Earth graphic with blue emission Super-LumiNova®
Day
Night
Every day, a new reminder.
▸ Animal date wheel
The date wheel on Earthrise doesn’t track the days - it highlights endangered species whose habitats are under threat due to human impact.
A small but powerful nudge to be mindful of our planet, one day at a time.
▸ Explore ready
Built for movement, made for adventure.
The watch is based on our 1956 Marine Automatic model, and has a high-grade durability and waterproof design. Earthrise is ready to follow you anywhere - from city streets to wild nature.
Go explore, knowing you’re wearing something that gives back.
▸ The design
Inspired by the iconic Earthrise view, this watch captures the stillness of space and the brilliance of our planet.
A star-dotted bezel and luminous dial reflect the contrast between darkness and light.
Paired with a one-pass nato strap crafted from sustainable materials, granted with the OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certification.
No battery, no waste
▸ The movement
Just like our planet, Earthrise runs without batteries.
Powered by motion, its automatic movement reflects Earth’s own rhythm — a precise, interconnected system where every part plays a role.
It’s an essential part of the tribute to our planet — the greatest design ever made.
Launching April 22nd
Earth Day 2025
