Watch DescriptionWhat makes this watch what it is
Introducing “Riverstone” – where rugged elegance meets timeless sophistication. Carved from sustainably sourced ebony wood and polished to a satin finish, this timepiece carries the spirit of nature’s resilience. It’s not just a watch; it’s a journey – one that starts in the heart of the earth and rests, effortlessly, on your wrist.
The 45mm case is an ode to precision, cradling the deep, rich tones of the wood grain – a symphony of nature’s artistry, no two pieces the same. Each pattern is a story, a whisper of rivers shaped by time, etched into ebony’s dark embrace.
The name “Riverstone” evokes serenity and strength, inspired by smooth pebbles shaped by flowing waters. It’s a reminder that beauty can emerge from life’s currents, polished over time into something extraordinary.
Crafted for those who appreciate simplicity with a dash of boldness, “Riverstone” is a statement of style and sustainability – proof that the finest things in life are born from nature’s touch.
Riverstone is automatic: no battery, wound by the wrist. How long a wooden watch lasts.

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 50 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.
