THE MISSION
Founded by brothers Daniel and Mike, North511 is rugged wearable technology born from engineering expertise and real-world necessity.
FROM VISION TO REALITY
MEET THE FOUNDERS
Growing up in sun-soaked California, my brother Mike and I spent our days with hands always busy taking things apart and putting them back together. We developed an insatiable curiosity about how technology could be pushed further. While other neighborhood kids were playing video games by the beach, we were in our garage workshop, dismantling old electronics and dreaming of building something revolutionary. The innovative spirit of Silicon Valley was in the air we breathed, even as kids tinkering in our parents' garage in San Jose.
Years later, with my career in Information Technology and Mike's expertise as an aerospace engineer, we found ourselves constantly frustrated by the same problem: smartwatches that couldn't survive our active lifestyles. The more we talked about it over weekend hikes and late-night brainstorming sessions, the clearer our mission became.
From an Idea to a Movement
ENGINEERED TO ENDURE
Starting a small company in a market dominated by tech giants was no easy task. We didn’t have billion-dollar budgets or massive manufacturing plants, but what we did have was a vision, engineering expertise, and an unstoppable drive to create something better.
We spent years researching, sketching designs, and testing materials. If we were going to succeed, we had to do what others wouldn’t—prioritize durability and performance over gimmicks. We sought out the strongest materials, military-grade standards, and the most advanced technology available, all while ensuring our smartwatches remained stylish, comfortable, and affordable.
After countless trials, North511 was born—a brand that stands for strength, endurance, and innovation.
BUILT FOR THE UNSTOPPABLE
DESIGNED FOR THOSE WHO PUSH LIMITS
From rugged mountains to demanding job sites, North511 smartwatches are built for outdoor adventurers, blue-collar workers, and tech enthusiasts who need a watch that keeps up with their lifestyle.
But we’re not stopping here. Innovation is at the core of everything we do. Our development team is constantly working on new software updates to enhance functionality, and we’re already designing the next generation of North511 smartwatches to push boundaries even further.
OUR PROMISE
THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING
North511 started as a vision—a belief that smartwatches should be as tough as the people who wear them. Today, that vision is a reality, but our journey is far from over.
With every update, every new model, and every adventurer who straps a North511 to their wrist, we get one step closer to redefining what a smartwatch can be.
We’re not just another tech brand. We’re a community of go-getters, risk-takers, and innovators who believe in pushing limits and never settling for less.
At North511, we don’t just build smartwatches.
We build gear you can trust.
