Earthrise(アースライズ)

Earthrise


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.

カレンダーディスクが31種類の絶滅危惧種の動物

The calendar disk features 31 endangered animal species


And 31 animals whose habitats are endangered or threatened by human influence are depicted on the calendar disk, with a variety of animals appearing each day through the window frame of the calendar. Each day is a reminder of an important message from the earth.


Super-LumiNova の青い蓄光

Super-LumiNova's blue luminescence


月から見た地球からインスピレーションを得たデザイン

Design inspired by the Earth as seen from the moon


To replicate the appearance of the Earth floating in space, the entire dial is covered with Super-LumiNova(R) blue luminescent luminescent paint, another attractive feature. The bezel is designed to represent the numerous small stars spread out in space.

And of course, the movement is self-winding, which means that it does not use batteries and boasts a quality that will last a lifetime.

One of the features of About Vintage watches is that all belts can be easily changed without tools. By changing from an active, adventure-inspired belt to an elegant, business-style metal bracelet, Vintage watches can be worn on a wide range of occasions.

What is About Vintage? A made-to-order model: efficient and ideal production.

About Vintage is a watch brand established in 2014 in Copenhagen, Denmark, by two childhood friends who are watch enthusiasts, to pursue their dream of producing watches that are valuable enough to be kept in a safe at a reasonable price. Everything from the design of the watches to the friendly customer support by Japanese staffs are done from the office and the main store in Copenhagen.


The two founders, full of passion and curiosity, always has ideas for new designs and projects has figured out the Made-to-order style to optimise the inventory, but still keeps continuing the exciting new releases.


And for a model like Earthrise, which is environmentally conscious, a made-to-order model that produces only the number of units ordered and eliminates waste is considered even more ideal. The disadvantage of the made-to-order model, however, is that it is only available for a limited period of time.


To receive timely information about the release of new models with limited quantities that may sell out on the same day, or about limited-time made-to-order models such as Earthrise, we recommend that you subscribe to the About Vintage newsletter.
