Young brand Fromanteel continues its quest to combine Dutch Design with Swiss reliability. The latest weapon in its line-up shows how well that combination can work out. Meet the Pendulum Traveler ‘Night Flight’, a new iteration on the brand’s GMT watch – and a watch that comes as a very interesting offer initially, but that […]
It all started with a bright idea based on some vague pictures. Dutch entrepreneurs Alfredo Silva and Martijn van Hassel stepped into the watch limelight exactly ten years ago with a brand name they borrowed from a man they could never have known. Even after long research, the men learned something, but not too much, […]
Dutch brand Fromanteel is expanding their range of automatic watches, the Pendulum being their first mechanical model, followed by the recently introduced Fromanteel Pendulum Traveller. Certainly not a new watch but an updated version in the existing Pendulum collection by Fromanteel, this blue dial version adds more classy elegance to this already surprising watch. Let’s have a closer look.
It isn’t the first that we mention Fromanteel on MONOCHROME. Still young but with already its own style, this Dutch brand offers several watches, including a couple of automatics with elegant, understated design – such as the classic Pendulum.

Building a brand from scratch is a challenge. Success isn’t always (in fact, most of the time) present and few can claim “we made it”. Fromanteel could have been one of them, but this watch brand, founded in 2009, has stood the test of time and moved from the microbrand status to a more established young brand.

Fromanteel Pendulum – Their First Automatic Fromanteel might be a brand that you’ve not heard of before, or at least not very often.
