The Wooden Watch I Will Be Wearing All Holiday Season
I love watches. Not only do they help you tell time (the clock on my cell phone is little, and I don’t always want to dig through my purse to find it), they are also a key fashion accessory. JORD recently sent me one of their Frankie 35 series watches to share with you. As always, all opinions are my own.
Yes, Wood Is A Great Material For Watches
I have seen watches with wood bands before, but I hadn’t tried one until JORD sent this one to me. I have to admit, I was concerned about the rain. We get quite a bit of it in Seattle, and while I don’t stand outside in the rain for hours every day, I didn’t want to end up with a watch that couldn’t take a few splashes as I go about my daily activities.
JORD watches are all splash proof. Each natural wood watch is finished and protected with tung oil. While you wouldn’t want to dunk it in a bowl of water or wear it in the pool, it’s completely safe to wear during your normal activities and a walk outside in the rain won’t ruin it.
My JORD watch arrived in a neat wooden box with a drawer. The watch had already been treated with Tung Oil before shipping it, but they also included a polishing cloth and JORD preserve finishing oil in the package. Think about your nice wood furniture, you don’t just polish it once in its lifetime. The same is true for a wood watch. You want to make sure to keep the wood properly conditioned. It only takes a few minutes, but will keep your watch looking brand new.
How I’m Styling My Wood Watch For The Holidays
Short answer, I’m wearing my wood watch with everything.
Longer answer, this JORD Frankie 35 series watch is completely versatile. It looks great with any jeans and long sleeve t-shirt to go look at Christmas lights, with a cup of hot cocoa in hand. It also looks great with the fancier outfits I will be wearing to holiday parties. And don’t forget about your significant other who can also choose from any of thesebeautiful wood watches.
The rich, dark sandalwood, mint face, and gold details are a beautiful addition to any outfit. I particularly love wearing it with brown boots. But don’t be afraid to wear it with black, or bright colors. The mint face is a great pop of color, and I love mixing strong neutrals like brown and black.
