If you do not like massive jewelery and don’t wear watches because they are too heavy, wooden ones will delight you. They are very light and not felt at all on the arm.

Yes, and the appearance of models with a wooden case will delight you. Both men's and women's watches made of natural wood look good. In this case, all shades look advantageous: from natural brown to light or even black. And this pleasure is not so expensive. Such watches will definitely cost you less than a branded accessory or jewelry made of gold.

As you can see, the watches with a wooden case have a lot of advantages. But counterbalance all and so significant minuses. Firstly, it is quite difficult to care for such a watch. When buying a watch, remember that wood is a hygroscopic material that absorbs all moisture very easily. So, if you constantly forget the clock on the shelf in the bathroom, then over time the wooden case will swell up and even slightly change its shape.

But there is another side to the coin. Wood loses moisture as easily as it absorbs it. Over-dried wooden hull may crack, which is why it will not look very good.

But the watch case can be protected from these natural problems. To do this, use a special coating that does not release and does not let moisture inside. If you plan to wear your watch for long years, you will need to repair it over time.

Another disadvantage of the wooden case is that it is easily subjected to all sorts of physical damage. So you need to be extremely careful that there are no scratches, dents or other defects on the dial.

The “WeWood” brand managed to “make friends” with clockwork. They essentially use only natural materials when creating their accessories. Their watches are made entirely of wood. That is, they have a wooden not only case but also a bracelet. At first glance, this seems inconvenient, but over time you will get used to and appreciate the attractiveness of your new jewelery.

Good reviews also receive products from Bobo Bird and BeWell. Choose high-quality accessories so that they do not crack and lose their shape in a short time.

Peculiarities of care

Wooden accessories have their own characteristics of use. First of all, after buying an accessory, you need to completely adjust it for yourself. With a leather strap, everything is quite simple. But if the bracelet consists of wooden links, then everything will be more difficult.

Therefore, it will be enough for you to take your watch to the workshop, and for an amount of about 300 rubles you will remove all unnecessary links. So you customize the decoration completely for yourself.

These details should not be thrown away, because over time, part of the bracelet may be damaged or your hand will slightly grow larger.

In order for the accessory to keep its attractive appearance as long as possible, it should be worn carefully. Ideally, wooden watches are bought for the summer, when the weather is as sunny and clear as possible and there is no risk of wetting the dial. Also, you should constantly take off the clock when you are doing household chores or taking a shower. Remember that if a tree gets very wet, it will expand and lose elasticity. As a result, the watch may break even if you bought it recently.

As is known, a tree changes its appearance with time. This can be seen on all sorts of crafts or furniture. Watch with a wooden case or a bracelet is subject to the same effect of time.

If you work at a computer, then over time, due to the contact with the tabletop, the surface of the tree can be polished. This is not bad, but you have to be prepared for the fact that the decoration will change in order not to be disappointed.

Some wood species naturally change color. So, for example, the dial of maple wood eventually change its color to a darker and deeper. The change will be insignificant, but it will still benefit the clock.

There are a number of points that help at least briefly prolong the life of jewelry. In addition to the careful attitude, it is also necessary to take care of him as carefully as possible. If the wooden part of the watch is dirty, then do not rush immediately to wash it with water. Take a small piece of cloth and wet it in soapy water, squeeze it well. The fabric should be almost dry, so as not to saturate the tree with moisture. Gently wipe the wood with this piece of cloth until it is completely clean.

And in order for wood to be more durable, it can be covered with a special protective liquid. Alternatively, you can choose and sparing home remedies. It can be high-quality beeswax or linseed oil. And creative girls manage to save wood with a simple, colorless lip gloss.
