Danish Design Nostalgi 1988 for the woman of 2021

In recent years, many major watch brands like to return to their illustrious past with reissues of iconic models. Strangely enough, we don't really see watches from the eighties here, because the eighties are HOT. Danish design is the exception. Because 1988 is the year Danish Design was founded. This is celebrated with a reinterpretation of the very first Danish Design watch.

With the new Nostalgi 1988, Danish Design celebrates its rich past. At the time, the brand was the first to market Scandinavian design watches. The 1988 model got an update for 2021 and is the perfect combination of the style of the 80s with a modern edge and technique.

The Nostalgi 1988 fits perfectly into today's fashion. Self-conscious and minimalist, but Insta-worthy. A modern watch for the woman of 2021 with a trendy 8ies vibe.

Then and now

Characteristic of these watches was and is the minimalist appearance. The self-tinting glass edge and a light sunray dial, which has a subtle reflection, give the watch a luxurious look. In addition, the gold-coloured hands look even more beautiful.

Curious what the original watches from 1988 looked like? Below you can see three examples.

In 2021 the entire design has been updated and a gold-toned DD logo has been added on the dial and on the crown. This update has also been applied to the strap; there are models with a leather strap – just like in 1988 – but also with a trendy link bracelet.

So, crank up Netflix and put on a delightful retro series like Stranger Things. Or listen to a compilation CD with the greatest 8ies hits and you're back in the wonder years. I just can't get enough!
