Nadir Featured by Worn & Wound as a Standout Microbrand
In the ever-expanding world of microbrand watches, getting recognized by industry giants is no small feat. We’re thrilled to announce that Worn & Wound, one of the most respected names in watch news and reviews, has selected Nadir as one of the most intriguing brands in their recent article, Micro-Brand Digest. This is a major milestone, solidifying Nadir’s position in the global microbrand community.
The feature highlights not only Nadir’s unique design philosophy but also the brand’s origin story, particularly through the lens of founder Bart Maniecki, an overlanding enthusiast. Here’s what Worn & Wound had to say:
"What is overlanding? As North Americans, we might simply think it’s a fancy term for off-roading; however, it is much more than that. Overlanding is self-reliant travel to remote destinations, where the journey is the primary goal. It typically involves off-road-capable vehicles and camping as the primary form of accommodation, lasting for extended periods. Poland’s Bart Maniecki is an overland enthusiast who founded Nadir out of necessity. He wanted a down-to-earth modern adventure tool that combined old-school build quality with a modern timepiece design. He also wanted dual-time capabilities, and thus, the Vespera came into existence."
This recognition underscores Nadir’s commitment to crafting robust, adventure-ready timepieces that fuse practicality with timeless aesthetics. The Vespera model, in particular, captures the essence of overlanding: rugged, reliable, and built to accompany you on life’s most demanding journeys.
As more eyes turn towards Polish microbrands, Nadir’s feature in Worn & Wound is a clear indicator that our homegrown brands are making waves on the global stage.
Stay tuned for more updates and watch reviews as Nadir continues its exciting journey!
