Have you ever seen a wooden watch? Around us, steel watches can be seen everywhere, but wooden watches are rarely seen. Many people got to know wooden watches by chance and started to love and recommend them. Let's take a look at the advantages and disadvantages of steel watches and wooden watches:
In the early 1990s, steel watches have become the mainstream material for the processing of high-end fashion accessories in Europe and the United States. He has the following characteristics:
1) Not easy to fade. The metal case of the steel watch comes in various colors, black, silver, blue, gold, rose gold, etc. They are processed by vacuum plating to develop the color. These colors do not fade easily and are resistant to wear for several years. Even more, than ten years, if you take good care of it.
2) Not easy to deform. As we know, if the case is made of stainless steel, it will be very hard. It will not be deformed due to a little collision, and can well protect watch accessories such as the movement.
3) Environmentally friendly and non-irritating to the skin. Unlike plastics, silicones, and other non-environmentally friendly materials, the stainless steel shell will not contain a large number of toxic substances that will adversely affect the skin.
4) The look shines. The texture and luster of stainless steel make the whole watch look shiny and luxurious. Suitable for important occasions such as business work.
5) Expensive. The production cost of steel watches is relatively high, and they are luxury goods, so the unit price in the market is relatively high.
So for wooden watches, I will help you understand wooden watches faster by comparing the above aspects.
1) No fading condition exists. The case strap of the wooden watch is formed by cutting, baking, grinding, polishing, and other processes of pure natural wood. There are no artificial colors, so there is no fading trouble.
2) The hardness is not as strong as that of steel. As we all know, the density of wood is far from comparable to that of stainless steel. After the wood is soaked in water, it will become very soft and easily deformed by impact. Therefore, we recommend that the wooden watch be stored in a dry environment. Under normal circumstances, if there is no particularly large impact, the outer shell of the wooden watch will not be easily deformed.
3) Self-evident environmental protection. The wood comes from nature and is hand-polished. After being discarded, the wood will be decomposed by natural microorganisms and return to nature. So there is no doubt that wooden watches are the most environmentally friendly. The wood used for the production of watches is generally smoked to remove insects, baked and dehumidified, and wood without irritating odor is usually selected. So it is very skin-friendly.
4) The appearance looks relatively simple. Unlike the steel watch, the wooden watch doesn't have a very shiny appearance, but rather a lovely, simple color. Black, brown, red, depending on the material of the wood.
5) Affordable prices. Wooden watches are not as expensive as steel watches. Usually, you can get a beautiful wooden watch from dozens of dollars to more than one hundred dollars. In contrast, they are like a kind of adult toys, decorations. Use it with everyday outfits, or as an aniversary gift.
After reading, have you understood the difference between a steel watch and a wooden watch? These are just a few of my personal opinions. Hope it helps you make better shopping choices.
