I’m a little bit of a watch snob, or maybe a watch collector is a better way of explaining it. Personally, I like finding unique, one-of-a-kind watches to wear as more of an accessory than an actual functional item. The same mantra goes for my gift giving as well. I like giving gifts that aren’t something you can find in every department store and on every online retailer. For this reason I’m loving the look of the JORD wood watches.

This men’s watch is from the Dover collection - the Koa and Black to be specific. I love the exposed gears, which add an element of interest and uniqueness that is unexpected. It’s self-winding and requires no batteries, so no need to worry about having a watch that dies at a clutch moment. There are five other wood/color combinations in this series, as well as several other styles if the exposed gears isn’t a good fit for the guy in your life.

One of the cool elements about JORD is that you can send wrist measurements when purchasing so that the watch will arrive fit for the person. No need to seek out a watch maker or attempt the process of sizing on your own. This way it’s done by the professionals and will show up at your door ready to be worn. I love when things are ready right out of the package with no tinkering or assembly required.

Since the JORD watches are made with real wood, upkeep of them is something to consider but easy to accomplish. Lemon or orange oil extract can be used to clean the natural wood and keep the watch in tip-top condition.
