First, the wood links and chassis should be solid
wood, not veneer. There nothing cheaper than a
watch that simply has paper thin veneer on
stainless steel. Go for solid wood watch made
with premium hardwoods like Koa wood or
Sandalwood from Hawaii. The more exotic the
wood, the better. Second, be sure you find a
high quality wood watch with a genuine quartz
movement from a reputable company like Citizen.
You dont want a wood watch that has a no-name
movement with no warranty. After all, if it
stops working, who you gonna call?

Third, be sure that the design of the wood
watches is stylish, not clunky. You dont want a
wood watch that looks like it got made in a high
school shop class! Dont get fooled by sales
people who say that wood watches are always
chunky. The best companies have a wide variety
of styles for men and women. For example,
www.martinandmacarthur has over 40 different
styles of wood watches and even has a Limited
Edition Series for which only 100 are
made. Fourth, be sure the wood watch is water
resistant. While no wood watch should be taken
for a swim or shower, the best wood watches can
be worn in the rain or while you are washing your
car.

Finally, be sure that the watch links are
adjustable. Lets face it. We all have
different size wrists. High quality wood watches
can be adjusted to fit any wrist size. This is
not only logical, it is required. In summary,
have fun in seeking out a wood watch that best
suits your taste and design style. Companies
like Martin MacArthur (www.martinandmacarthur.co

of curly Koa wood to make many of its best
selling watches. The time is right for wood.
