Brand History
The whole journey started during the summer of 2018. I (Sven Even) Was on vacation and decided it
was time to get a quality watch. After spending hours searching from one store to another I
concluded that none of the watches were good enough unless I blew my budget.
After getting back from the vacation I searched the internet for watches that would fit my budget
and provide good quality, but with little success. By August 2019 I had a collection of about 10 good
watches, but none that were perfect.
I couldn’t understand why there were so few good watches in a reasonable price range and started
thinking ”Is it possible for me to fix this problem”. I started looking into watch production and how to
find factories for producing prototypes. I started drawing by hand and later made some 3D
models. After talking to several factories I found one that had reasonable prices and they delivered
some 2D drawings that I was happy with. The initial Cambrian prototype design was completed the
2nd of January 2020 and development began.
In March 2020 I officially founded Forteller AS, this company. I spent the bulk of 2020 working on the
prototypes and perfecting the design.
December 2020: Finally it was time. I sent out some watches for reviews, created a Kickstarter
campaign and crossed my fingers.
Despite getting over 500.000,- NOK in pledges I did not have enough to produce the batch of 500
watches that the factory required. The campaign ended, the pledges were never collected and I sat
down and started thinking about what to do next.
I ended up with the simple solution of working extra hours and saving as much money as possible
for a year. After the next campaign also failed I had managed to save just enough to make 500
watches. The Cambrian model arrived in June 2022.
The watches sold fast and the feedback was very good. I traveled to Hong Kong in 2023 during the
Watch and Clock fair to talk to different factories and to start prototyping the next model,
the Engineer Diver.
After many delays(due to me being a slight perfectionist) the production was completed in July 2024
and is now available on this site.
