Swedish-Designed Watches for All Occasions Today, a watch is so much more than just a time piece. It is a fashion detail, a designed piece of jewelry, that says something about its wearer’s style. Many famous fashion houses now also design watches. Gucci, Armani, and Chanel are just a few of the designers who, in addition to sunglasses and handbags, have successfully incorporated watches into their accessory lines. Axcent of Scandinavia is one of Sweden’s most prominent manufacturers of designer watches. Their business cept is trendy designs at reasonable prices. A watch should be more than just a watch; it should be something special. At the same time, it should not cost as much as a Gucci watch. Axcent’s designers draw their inspiration from Sweden’s natural beauty and its culture. The watches should feel Swedish but also be suitable for the international market. Axcent recruits both well-established designers and unknown talent to help them achieve these goals. Several years ago, they contacted the School of Arts, Crafts, and Design, Sweden’s most respected training ground for design. Axcent wanted to strengthen its affiliation to Swedish design, while at the same time giving new talent a chance. Several students began their careers as unknown watch designers at Axcent and went on to become recognized, established names in the business. Daniel Jakobsson, a graphic designer at Axcent, is also responsible for its marketing. Before going to work at Axcent, he was a freelancer, designing record covers and posters. He recounts that each semester students at the art school submit designs for watches and Axcent produces the best ones. Generally, it takes no more than a year for the idea and the drawing to become a reality: a watch that can be found in stores. In the best-case scenario, the entire process takes only two months. “Swedish design is exclusive, simple, and discrete without being boring,” says Daniel Jakobsson. “Swedes have an eye for design and are aware of the personality behind a watch. It is not unusual for a person to come in and inquire about a specific designer,” he adds. Today, Axcent’s watches are sold in Europe, Asia, Canada, and Africa. In Stockholm, they are sold at NK Details and Ur & Penn, and at Arlanda International Airport. Axcent has won awards for its watches and is represented at the Museum of Modern Art in San Francisco.
