There is the complexity and beauty of the game that fascinates me. Unlike several other sports where you can exercise physically to run faster or lift heavier, chess is a sport that requires a strong intellectual and mental capacity, as well as a good and balanced physique. It&#8217;s a game for the thinking individuals and some selected high level games can be looked at as a piece of art. I make watches for sophisticated individualists who appreciate the small details. &#8220;<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"normal\"><span lang=\"no\">The watch fascination started at the age of 12, when he inherited his great-grandfather\u2019s treasured Swiss watch. In the young Von Doren, it stirred an exceptional passion for wristwatches. Although only a child, he started reading about notable timepieces with a passion. This young boy in his hometown of Aalesund, Norway, was at the beginning of a journey destined to last a lifetime.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2659\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/norwaychess.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Basic-bilde.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2659\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2659\" src=\"https:\/\/norwaychess.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Basic-bilde-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/norwaychess.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Basic-bilde-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/norwaychess.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Basic-bilde-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/norwaychess.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Basic-bilde-317x239.jpg 317w, https:\/\/norwaychess.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Basic-bilde.jpg 833w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2659\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Grandmaster Mark II Open Heart<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_2650\" style=\"width: 238px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/norwaychess.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Portrett-\u00d8yvind-Von-Doren-Event.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2650\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2650\" src=\"https:\/\/norwaychess.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Portrett-\u00d8yvind-Von-Doren-Event-228x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"228\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/norwaychess.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Portrett-\u00d8yvind-Von-Doren-Event-228x300.jpg 228w, https:\/\/norwaychess.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Portrett-\u00d8yvind-Von-Doren-Event-114x150.jpg 114w, https:\/\/norwaychess.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Portrett-\u00d8yvind-Von-Doren-Event-778x1024.jpg 778w, https:\/\/norwaychess.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Portrett-\u00d8yvind-Von-Doren-Event-182x239.jpg 182w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 228px) 100vw, 228px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2650\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00d8yvind Von Doren Asbj\u00f8rnsen<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Von Doren &#8211; Fine Timepieces is Official Timekeeper for Altibox Norway Chess 2018 \u00a0The Norwegian watch brand Von Doren- Fine Timepieces\u00a0is on a rise these days and we are proud to present Von Doren as Official Timekeeper for Altibox Norway Chess 2018.
