Seen theses...wood watches

Saw them in a store a little bit ago. Nothing fancy but I thought it was cool they were crafted from wood. There around $100

The WEWOOD SPECIAL CARE warranty does not cover:

Damages occured from exposure to water or fire;
Any damage of any part of the watch resulting from abnormal/abusive use, lack of care, negligence, accidents (knocks, dents, cracks etc.) incorrect use of the watch;
Damages caused by non-authorized persons (e.g. for battery replacement, services, repairs or alterations beyond WEWOOD® control).



Backround:


Yes – WE WOOD

WEWOOD has emerged out of Italy as an emblem of eco-luxury and design, committed to the health of our planet. WEWOOD is the avant-garde approach to sophisticated sustainability.



The Tree and The Wood Watch
WEWOOD lets us rediscover nature in its beauty, its simplicity and inspired design. It reminds us of a tree’s powerful way of life; rooted, yet reaching.

Completely absent of artificial and toxic materials, the WEWOOD Timepiece is as natural as your wrist. It respects your skin as you respect nature by choosing it. Your WEWOOD Watch breathes the same air that you breathe and may awaken memories from another time and place. Your WEWOOD Watch records your sensations and shares your experiences as the perfect natural mate, whose story also becomes yours to wear, smell and feel.


Rebuilding an Endangered Ecosystem - One Tree at the Time
A philosophy not implemented is only a dream. Conversely, when you get your WEWOOD Timepiece, you can feel confident you’re making a difference. One Timepiece plants one tree, and together we help to ensure the health and survival of the natural world.

One Watch – One Tree – One Planet


“The best time to plant a tree is twenty years ago. The second best time is now.”

When I try to think of a target demographic for these watches, my first thought is Jack Johnson or any other hippy out there.

Definitely not my style.

These just look cheap. Like a souvenir from a national park.

Exellent point. Termites can be a real problem with wood watches. The best way to deal with termites is to apply orange oil liberally on your wrist on days when wearing one.
