Why it is renowned

Jakob Wagner designed the Native for Nordgreen as a study in minimalism: a clean dial whose minute markers show fully only in direct light, elongated hour markers at 3 and 9, and a slim, raised case.1

The story

Nordgreen says the Native draws on life in Copenhagen.1 The 36 mm model has a case 7.6 mm thick; the watch comes in 28, 32, 36 and 40 mm, with straps in leather, mesh or links that change by hand.1
