Review: Wood Watches by Jord

A few months ago I was sent this women's Cora Wood Watch by Jord in maple in lavender. I don't own a "go-to" watch so I was pretty excited to be receiving one, after a few sizing issues I finally am able to share my thoughts with you all. The Cora series was released this summer but this beautiful lavender and maple wood watch can be worn all year long. 

Available in 5 varieties, suffused with vivid hues, graphic prints, and enticing textures the Cora series was crafted to be adord. JORD is run by artists, designers, marketers, and minders. Focused on creating timepieces that are modeled after a modern lifestyle, Jord values sustainability, efficiency, and experiential living. They make their watches for people who don't just have somewhere to be, they have somewhere to go.

I instantly fell in love with the unique design and vivid colors of the watch. My favorite aspect is that this wood watch is unique. We are used to seeing metal or plastic wristbands but wood let alone maple wood is pretty uncommon. For someone who prefers to go against the grain—no pun intended, I am really drawn to Wood Watches by Jord and their style. These women watches would be the perfect gift for your loved one this holiday season, Jord currently has 10% off so be sure to take advantage of the discount!

FINISH & CARE

The natural maple is hand finished and pretreated with tung oils. The Cora is splash-proof but should not be submerged in water (3 ATM).

Lemon or orange oil extract is best for cleaning the natural wood. When storing this timepiece, avoid extremely hot, cold, and excessively dry/humid environments.
