About us
Welcome to Radium
Some describe a watch as a man’s only piece of jewellery. We respectfully disagree.
Radium is not in the jewellery business — we are in the tool business. A reflection of Norwegian industrial heritage.
Our sandblasted aluminium case, historically grounded form factor, and focus on immediate legibility have made Radium one of Norway’s most distinctive manufacturers of high-quality watches.
“Tools, not jewllery.”
Our Journey
Radium Instruments was originally founded as a tribute to the Norwegian resistance during the Second World War. Fifteen years later, we now supply watches to, among others, military special units. That is where quality has taken us.
Production & Craftsmanship
At Radium, our watches are developed from initial concept to finished instrument at Tveita in Oslo. Here, each model is designed and prototyped before being assembled, regulated, and rigorously quality-tested by our watchmakers.
Our watches are crafted in aluminium, steel, and titanium — materials carefully selected to meet demanding requirements for robustness, precision, and operational reliability. Through systematic testing and validation, we ensure that every Radium performs exactly as intended: a tool, not a piece of jewelry.
Radium watches are tested in accordance with MIL-STD-810H at Kongsberg Technology Park, Norway, a NATO-adopted standard that verifies equipment durability and performance under demanding conditions. For you, this means a watch you can rely on when precision and dependability truly matter.
Our Mission
To give you the distinct feeling that comes from handling equipment built to the highest standards.
Swiss at heart
