Once in a blue moon, something catches your eye and takes your breath away, not always because it's a thing of beauty or something shocking, but because it's so different from anything you've ever seen, you can't help but stop and look to take it in. That was me when I first discovered JORD watches.
JORD watches are made out of wood from St Louis in America. Each one lovingly crafted with the most beautiful attention to detail. The watches, as you'd expect, are light-weight and unusual, I mean, who's seen a wooden watch before?
Each design in the series is most definitely different from the last. The watch I have here, is the JORD Delmar Red, and it's made out of sandalwood, in it's natural colour (stunning!).
I love their attention to detail, the little 'J' on the pin to change the time, the JORD embriodered on the little pillow the watch is hugging, and the exceptional craftsmanship that's gone into creating the watch, and not just the watch, but the beautiful wooden box it comes in. There are no rough edges, everything is smooth and soft. They'll also help you size it ahead of the purchase so when it arrives it'll fit perfectly (mine is a perfect fit).
They have a really good range of women's watches too (I'm guessing this falls under mens, although I think it's unisex), some really elegant ones in light wood with little Swarovski crystals around it, the Sydney in Maple and Rose Gold is my absolute favourite :) I can imagine that's a best seller for them :)

This is most definitely a large watch, probably more suited to a man, but I like a big watch, especially such a statement piece like this. Plus, the hubby loves it too, so it might make it's way onto his wrist a lot too ;)
If you want to take a look at JORD watches, you can see their range here. They even had a wooden watch similar to my Michael Kors rose gold watch (their version is STUNNING!). I think that, for the quality, the uniqueness and originality, it's priced really well. This one is $149 (so £94.60 at the current exchange rate), and delivery is $20 (so just under £10) which is couriered.
What do you think of these wooden watches?
