Watchmakers and designers at WoodBugria have created and launched a new automatic watch via Kickstarter, combining traditional woodworking techniques with modern mechanical watch technology. This innovative timepiece stands out due to its unique design and the incorporation of wooden components, which are rarely seen in the world of high-end watches. Watch the promotional video below to learn more about its unique design and wooden components.
Early bird pledges are now available from roughly $500, offering a 38% saving off the recommended retail price. With worldwide shipping expected to take place during December 2020, this is an excellent opportunity for watch enthusiasts to own a piece of this groundbreaking design at a reduced price.
Innovative Design and Craftsmanship
The WoodBugria automatic watch is a testament to the fusion of traditional craftsmanship and modern technology. The creators have meticulously combined steel and wood to produce a watch that is not only functional but also a work of art. Unlike other wood-themed watches on the market, which are often made entirely of wood or feature minimal metal, the WoodBugria watch uses wood as an embellishment. This design choice is inspired by luxury yachts and sports cars, where wood is used to enhance the aesthetic appeal. The result is a watch that exudes elegance and sophistication.
“This is a watch which combines steel and wood. The wood-themed watches on the market are usually full-wood watches or wood with a small amount of metal. We feel that a small part of wood is enough as an embellishment. It is as expensive as the yacht you see. Sports cars, adding wood as the decoration, looking good. WoodBugria is a work of art based on traditional woodworking techniques.”
Advanced Movement and Functionality
The movement of the WoodBugria automatic watch is another highlight. The creators have extensive experience in watchmaking and have seen various functional movements over the years. The movement used in this watch was introduced to the market recently and has been praised for its design and functionality. It ensures accurate timekeeping and adds to the overall appeal of the watch.
“We have been making watches for many years. We have seen different functional movements. This movement was first introduced in the market in recent years. We feel that the design and the function of this movement is gorgeous.”
The WoodBugria automatic watch is not just a timepiece; it is a statement of style and craftsmanship. The combination of wood and steel, along with the advanced movement, makes it a unique addition to any watch collection. Whether you are a watch enthusiast or someone who appreciates fine craftsmanship, the WoodBugria watch is sure to impress.
