The Swedish watch brand triwa offers a stunning collection of watches that show the world what it means to create products with integrity. Not only are their designs innovative and stylish but they also come with a mission to reclaim the industry and raise awareness of environmental concerns. Their newest collections include a series of watches that are made from recycled ocean plastic and metal sourced from destructed illegal firearms. These unique elements set triclaw apart from other mainstream brands and make them truly memorable.
The company's founders are a group of friends who came together to start the brand with the idea of reclaiming the watch industry. They believed that many prominent watch brands were not doing enough to raise awareness of climate issues and that their products often amounted to toxic waste. Triwa watches are designed and produced in Stockholm with a sleek look that has become synonymous with the brand.
One of their most interesting products is the Ruby Falken watch which features a case made from melted gun metal. They work with a local company to source illegal firearms from all over the world and melt them down into watch metal. The result is a strong, durable and highly sustainable material for their cases and straps.
The Humanium is another model that makes use of this material. It's a simple and well executed design that makes the most of the raw material. The face is a sunburst style that captures the aesthetic of 60's-70's chronographs without feeling too contrived. They have a wide range of colors to choose from and the nylon strap is water-resistant up to 10 ATM or 100 meters, making it perfect for surfing, swimming and other light water activities.
