Will it fit?

Will it fit?

Almost certainly. The bracelet is made of links and comes with the tool to take them out or put them back, so it adjusts a long way in both directions.

If you want to check first, it takes about thirty seconds.

  1. Wrap a strip of paper round your wrist, just past the bone. Snug, not tight.
  2. Mark where it meets, then lay it flat against a ruler. No ruler? A bank card is 8.5cm wide.
  3. That number is your wrist size.

We have not published a fitting range for this watch yet, so if your measurement looks unusual either way, send it to support@theforestwatches.com and we will tell you before you order.

Common questionsAre wooden watches any good? Waterproof? Sizing?

Are wooden watches any good?

Yes, as a gift they will wear — with honest limits. They are real wood, lighter than steel, and the grain is different on every case. They are splash-proof, not waterproof. They are not as tough as a steel sports watch. We back them with a two-year warranty and 90-day returns, engraved or not.

How long do wooden watches last?

Years of daily wear if you keep them dry. The two-year warranty is the promise in writing. Most Forest watches are quartz, so a battery change every few years is the usual service. Riverstone and Woodhaven are automatic: no battery, wound by the motion of the wrist. What fails first, if anything, is moisture from a soaking, or the quartz battery.

Can wooden watches get wet?

Splash-proof: rain and washing your hands are fine. Not for swimming, showers or the sea. Wood and water are a bad mix if you soak the watch. Dry it if it gets wet, and do not leave it in a steamy bathroom.

Is wood a good 5th-anniversary gift?

Yes. Wood is the traditional gift for a fifth wedding anniversary. A wooden watch is one they wear, not another board or frame. Engraving is £25 for up to 40 characters, done in our London workshop, and you can still send it back for 90 days if it is not right. Ten trees are planted with every watch, through Tree-Nation.

Engraved and still returnable for 90 days.
