GUL originated in 1967 in England as a line of surfing watches, which were tough and waterproof. As GUL expanded its watches into other sports, they introduced the Velcro watch strap to the world. Surfers took an avid interest in these GUL sport watches, and as demand continued to increase GUL created its own retail watch outlets.
The GUL sport watch marketing team is in Sweden, where the focus of the product is on windsurfing, in-line skating, snowboarding, MTB, beach volleyball, and of course surfing and diving. The motto of the GUL firm is "for people who don't want to look like other people." And wearing these sport watches, you surely don't.
