Care & Maintenance

Cleaning

Cleaning is key in keeping your wooden watch looking good. All our wooden watches are 3ATM water resistant, however you should avoid exposing your wood watch to running water for an extended period, or submerging in water. This is a natural watch and natural wood absorbs moisture, which can cause the wood to warp.

Clean regularly with a soft cloth to remove dirt and dust that build up on the watch's exterior. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive material, this can scratch or tarnish the wood.

Storage

Store your sustainable watch properly when not in use to avoid chips or scratches. Correct storage will protect your wood watch from damage and maintain a pristine appearance. Your new eco-friendly watch comes with a recycled watch box for storage; however should you wish to upgrade we also offer a Bamboo Watch Box.

Protect your wood watch from extreme temperatures to prolong its life-span. Our wooden watches are crafted from natural wood that can be affected by extremes of temperature and humidity. All our watches are properly finished and coated, however naturally wood can absorb moisture, warm or split in extremes. Avoid leaving in direct sunlight for long periods, next to heaters and radiators, or in extreme cold conditions.

Other considerations

Watches are sensitive to magnetic fields. Keep your sustainable watch away from magnets, exposure can affect their functionality. Regular servicing will help prolong the lifespan of any watch including your natural wood watch. Take it to a professional watch shop or service centre for repairs and servicing as required.

The Materials

No Trees Were Cut for This Watch

The Cedar is made from reclaimed wood furniture material with a past life, given a new one. Each watch carries the subtle marks of what it once was: variations in grain, depth of colour, and character you can't manufacture.

Craftsmanship

Built to Be Noticed

Green Sandalwood Band

The Cedar is a vegan, handmade wooden watch and showcases a minimalist yet sophisticated colour palette of browns, dark greens, and blacks, with a touch of gold. The band of this wristwatch is crafted from green sandalwood, featuring a unique grain pattern and colour hue.

Matt Black Body

This timepiece's band is complemented by the minimalist design of the watch body and dial. The Cedar’s watch body features multiple dials, including a stopwatch facility and allows for a subtle yet stylish look.

Kind to the Environment

The Cedar is handmade from recycled natural wood furniture, reducing the impact on the environment both through the sustainable materials used, and the production processes. This cruelty-free watch is made from vegan materials, packaging is eco-friendly and delivery is carbon neutral.

Give Back to Nature

For every order, offset 100kg of carbon and plant 1 tree, fighting to save our environment and keep our operations environmentally friendly.

The Materials

Green Sandalwood

Origins

Green Sandalwood originates from the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia, though it’s now cultivated in parts of Australia.

Common use

Historically, Green Sandalwood has been used in religious rituals and carvings. The wood can have a rich scent, which intensifies with age, making it popular in perfumes (candle, anyone?). Green Sandalwood has become rare and protected in many regions, leading to sustainable cultivation efforts to preserve this hardwood. This is why we only use recycled furniture offcuts to craft our natural watches.

Colours & Wood grain

Green sandalwood is known for a distinct greenish-brown colour and has sister strains including yellow and red sandalwood. The natural grain pattern of the Green sandalwood provide this men's watch it's sophisticated finish.
