Hybrid

This watch design is well executed. Some samples have silicone over-squirt under the crystal. Crystal seems very flat and highly reflective, with no attempt to lower reflectivity by application of multi-coating processes. Quartz clock drive is remarkably accurate. Stem may be difficult to extract to adjust time, because it has poor texturing, and in the wrong direction. Removal of segments requires standard watchmaker tools and is somewhat clumsy. Segments are large and there are no half-segments, so wristband either fits great or somewhat loose. To adjust fit, I had to create a 0.75" x 1.5" pad that was about 3/32" thick and paste it on the bottom lock plate of the bracelet; that helped a lot. Looks good !!

This watch is really made beautifully, quite stunning and extremely lightweight. I love that it's made from wood!

My TRuWood Hybrid watch is a thing of beauty. It has garnered quite a bit of attention in the short time I've been wearing it. The watch is a show piece, like a work of art on my wrist. . I like the fact that TruWood plants 10 trees with every watch purchase , that makes so much sense for the environment. The watch is light and study. The combination of olive and black mahogany sandalwoods is striking. This is one of the most satisfying Purchases I've made in a long time. I will love to tell people more about TRuWood when they ask about my watch. Keep up the good work. Mike
