The Fullerö Sword – Midnight Blue captured the spotlight at the Timepiece World Awards 2025 in Toronto. After being nominated as a finalist by the international committee, the watch was reviewed by the jury on Friday, September 9th. Their decision: to honor the GoS timepiece as the Winner in the Exceptional Materials category. The result was officially announced during Saturday evening’s award ceremony.
GoS is widely recognized as the brand that introduced pattern-welded steel—commonly known as Damascus steel—into high-end watchmaking. Since the first deliveries in spring 2008, both design and craftsmanship have undergone continuous evolution. In 2019, bladesmith Conny Persson joined as the GoS bladesmith, and together with Patrik Sjögren, they elevated the artistry even further with the Fullerö Sword. The model pays tribute to the skills of Viking-age bladesmiths by recreating the intricate sword-blade patterns in a watch dial.
