Sandalwood wrist watch made from 50 hand-cut pieces
Of course, the mechanism within this watch isn't wood as it was in this amazing wood pocket watch that I posted about some time ago. However, hand-cut sandalwood does make up the the band's links, bezel, crown, case, and case back. Nearly everything you can actually see is made of real wood. Despite the fact that you can buy one of these for yourself for $139.95, no two are alike. The final appearance depends on the particular piece of sandalwood harvested from sustainable plantation-based stands grown in East Africa. The watch uses an efficient Miyota quartz movement, which provides reliable time for about two-years on one battery. Six adjustable links allow for a customized fit for a variety of wrist sizes. It also comes in a smaller lady's size.
It may not go with every item in your wardrobe, but I think this thing makes a nice fashion statement. What does it say exactly? I don't know. You tell me. I just know I like it.
Here is where you can get the The Gentleman's Sandalwood Watch.

This will most definitely be a fashion statement when worn. The question is what to pair it with. This outfit (http://bit.ly/16jX1HB) might work for the all natural look.
That's pretty much the perfect women's outfit for that watch! Thanks for sharing that.
