In the world of watchmaking, wood is a material that’s definitely late to the party. Metal, plastic, and silicone dominated the industry for decades until many of us realized the importance of lowering our impact on the environment.

Wooden watches were born out of necessity — when a repairman named James Borden took to this material in lieu of metal as he didn’t have access to metalworking equipment. It took a few years for this style to gain popularity, but it really took off when it did.

The wooden timepieces that you can buy today are more durable, reliable, and period-correct — pair them up with different straps, and things get even more exciting.

Why We Love Wooden Watches and Leather Bands

From exquisite furniture and upholstery to the eye-grabbing interiors of your favorite luxury car, wood and leather make a pretty awesome team. The classic combination is in a league of its own — where warm and rustic wood perfectly complements the ever-growing allure that leather has to offer.

The Zeitholz range of watches perfectly captures this essence, leaving you with a timepiece that exudes elegance.
