Handmade Wooden Watch Made with Natural Bamboo Wood in Brown Leather Strap - HGW-158

Some specific notes are below, but overall, the watch works. It's comfortable, very light, an (unintentional) conversation starter, and it's received a slew of compliments.- This watch didn't come with a band as dark as the one indicated in the picture; mine showed up about the same shade as the bamboo itself. However, within a week, the patina developed to be darker than the bamboo, and it has continued to develop and change; I like that about leather. If you don't, then maybe shy away from this one.- No scratches so far. (I'm prone to wear and tear, but the sapphire glass has done it's job -- it's a flat surface, by the way.)- Tiny imperfections. I did a little inspection of the watch when it arrived, and the only "fault" I could find was that some dust was trapped where the glass was placed. It's not very obvious, and someone would have to looking to spot it.

UPDATED 10/2018 - I Paid 22 bucks for this watch (from amazon purchase history) and it has been great for that price as stated below... but for 255 bucks NO WAY - go CUCOL same look but right price. I have no idea what happened here but the price is way out of line.Original review 2016:I marked "I Love it" which I do .. but more importantly SHE loves it. My wife has a reaction to pretty much any metal that touches her skin. She's even blistered up wearing a FITBIT (which contains trace particles of nickel in the plastic band) - Not here - Its been working great! she wears it every day and she gets tons of compliments on it. It seems to keep good time. I asked my wife to tell me if there was anything negative she could add for the review. She said "Well its so comfortable I sometimes forget to take it off and then wake up with my face mashed against it." so there is that LOL... It is a little on the large side for her wrist but it just draws attention to it but doesn't detract from the watch. Its I nice "no metal contact" watch for a very reasonable price, if you've been thinking about it.. get it!!REVIEW UPDATE:: - After 2 years the battery just died - can't beat this watch its been great and still looks good though the leather (NOT PLEATHER) band is starting to show some wear. It has darkened a bit over time with body oils (which looks cool) but the place where the buckle latches is just starting to fray. Super value, great watch, couldn't ask for a better deal.. STILL 5 STARS.

I bought one of these watches because I liked the design and thought it was at a good price. When I received my watch, I was very happy with the feel. The leather band felt very good, and it had a nice weight. However, I soon realized that my watch was defective, since the hour hand got stuck at the 6 position and would no longer tell time (although to be fair, it got the time right twice per day). I returned it as defective, and ordered another watch. The second watch I received was not from the same brand. It was much lower in quality, and the band was not made out of "genuine cow hide leather" as is said on the description, but instead from a cheap pleather. I'm very unhappy, since I did not buy other models specifically because I saw that this watch was made with genuine leather.

Honestly the cheapest looking and feeling watch I've ever handled. I've never been more disappointed by an Amazon purchase.Based on the picture, I was expecting a dark-lacquered coating, whereas the watch is much whiter in color. The pictures on here are color-adjusted to make them look much darker than they actually are. The second-notches are also hard to distinguish on the watch face.Would definitely not recommend to watch collectors out there

The watch is incredibly light on the wrist. Minimal, and in my opinion, attractive face design. The leather strap is really a cheap pleather that looks kind of bad and feels scratchy on the wrist; the watch itself feels fine. I'm wary of changing out the band since it looks like it could very well damage the watch unless struck absolutely perfectly. Assuming it's easy to swap the band out, then I'd say this is a pretty great price for a niche watch. I'll update when I swap out the band to update if there's any damage.

Wow, I (and many others based on the complements) love this watch. I've gotten so many people asking me where I got it and are wondering what it's made of.Pros -Quality - Feels much more expensive than it is and has held up well.Light - This thing is really light on the wrist and the strap is comfortableLooks - This thing turns headsCons -The stitching on the watch itches the skin a little bit

This is a unique piece. I am impressed by the quality and the low price. The watch face is a good size. It's not jumbo, but I would say above average size. The only reason this is not 5 star is because it's not water resistant/proof. I'm not complaining, however, because of the price. I have gotten several compliments from wearing this.

Nifty watch. I've had lots of people ask me about it, telling me how cool it is. I don't actually care about telling time. I'm just happy for the attention.I finally feel cool, guys. Finally...I'm so...yay...I think I'll get the zebrawood watch too.

looks nice but was incredibly fast, and 2 of the four screws holding the back on fell out within the first week. useless as an actual time keeping device, but again, looks nice.

Delivered hastily bubble wrapped with duct tape - not even in a decent small box as a gift item. 'Genuine' leather strap cheap looking contrary to advertised photos and description.

very interesting...time keeping precision yet to be seen.

Beautiful watch! My hubby loves it and gets complimented all the time!

Simple. Lightweight.
