Gruvebus – The Arctic Mining Heritage on Your Wrist

Gruvebus – The Arctic Mining Heritage on Your Wrist

Gruvebus is a mining heritage watch forged with real Svalbard coal. Inspired by Norway’s Arctic mining history, it features a hardened 316L steel case, constant-glow Trigalight GTLS, and Super-LumiNova for readability in total darkness. Every detail – from the textured dial to the engraved caseback – tells the story of Svalbard’s mines, making it a true piece of Arctic heritage for collectors and history enthusiasts.

From the depths of the Arctic to your wrist
Deep beneath the permafrost of Svalbard lies a silent, dark world. For generations, miners have extracted coal here – the “black gold” that powered homes, ships, and entire communities. It was inside Mine 7 in Longyearbyen that the inspiration for Gruvebus was born – our tribute to Norway’s mining history and the people who lived it.

Forged with real Svalbard coal
Gruvebus doesn’t just take inspiration from mining – it carries it within. Coal from Mine 7 is used in the steel-hardening process, increasing the hardness and scratch resistance of the 316L stainless steel. The result: a watch that’s as tough as the heritage it represents.

Designed for the dark
With a combination of Trigalight GTLS and Super-LumiNova, Gruvebus remains readable in total darkness – a nod to the endless polar night.

Every detail tells a story
The caseback features a relief of the Gruvebus statue in Longyearbyen, while the dial texture is inspired by the rugged surfaces of the mines. 

For collectors and history lovers
Gruvebus is more than a watch. It’s a piece of Arctic heritage you can wear – built with premium materials, Swiss movement, and a design that captures the spirit of the North.
