Great for People with Social Anxiety!
Hey, I’m James Brains with the Brains Report, and this is my video review of the Wonbee Bamboo Wood Watch.There are 3 main reasons why I like the Wonbee Bamboo Wood Watch:1. Lightweight – I’m tired of these watchmakers that think men want to show off how strong they are by having heavy watches. This baby only weighs .9 ounces. It’s like it isn’t there.2. Affordable – Not all of us have the money for Rolexes. This is the next best thing for $20K less.3. Conversation Starter – I have social anxiety. Yet, I like meeting people. Now, I just hold this up at eye level as I walk around the party, and people come talk to me.In the evenings, I find myself checking my phone to see what time it is. I would then get sucked into social media, and before I knew it, the night was gone. I got this watch so I could hide my phone and still know the time. It works great! I have not found any way to access social media with it…yet.I chose the skull design because the roller derby team I play for, the Lane County Concussion, has a skull logo. In fact, when I move away, I’m considering buying one of these for everyone on the team as a way to remember me and the march of time to our inevitable deaths.As soon as the watch arrived in the mail, I put it on and started flashing it. After a couple hours, I realized the time had not changed. I was about to break it to tiny pieces in my hands when I took a moment to read the directions. Remember to remove the tiny piece of plastic.I recommend this watch to anyone who wants to showcase a bit of style without a hefty price tag or if you just have social anxiety. Five stars.If you have any questions, please comment below. I’m here to help.

Again a masterpiece
So its my third wooden watch.. I started falling in love with the collection..We bought the wooden watch with deer head and with the infinity design and after getting those, I am so impressed and happy with its design and quality.. we decided to order our third one..really..these wooden watches are far much lovely in real than in pictures online. What's not to love about them.. they are eco friendly.. they are wooden...I love and admire wooden art a lot.. and thats the reason I am not able to stop buying these watches again and again.. The watch express great craftsmanship..! This time we went with the skull head design...It is extremely lightweight just like others... It has soft leather strap which said to be made of 100% full cow hide leather and it doesn't irritate your skin.. The overall watch has a very unique look of half skull design..Its also well built and well designed !I also got two bracelets with it as a plus bonus... they are also nice ..But nothing seems to be standing in front of this watch...Even if the watch comes without bracelets, you will be happy with it.. These wooden watches can make an excellent gift.Its design is unisex so me as well as my husband can wear this watch...Many people asked us about these watches as well as compliment us...Its comfortable and soft and feathery lightweight...You will love this watch more than the standard metallic watches.. It also looks very costly and doesn't look cheap at all....comes well packed in a cute box too...

It's handsome. BUT...(a smaller man's perspective)...
It's H-U-G-E - but I suppose that most watches are extra-ridiculously large these days. I am a shorter man and I have found it extremely difficult to find a watch that doesn't make me look like I'm a child wearing his dad's watch.... this one is no different. I nearly returned it, but I needed a wrist watch and I have tried on so many. THIS one far exceeds the statement of other, plainer watches. Its wood-etched design (I got the skull one) is superb and the construction of the watch band in leather is flawless. It is huge, but it's so light that I don't even notice I'm wearing it often. If I'm going to wear such a huge timepiece, this is the one I will wear. Plus, as a forensic anthropology student, this will definitely be a great conversation piece. Edit: almost a month later, it is keeping excellent time.

People Can't Believe This Watch, Neither Can I
I have never received so many compliments because of an article of clothing, accessory, or visual attraction than I have with this watch. I almost hesitate to write this review because the more of these watches that get out there, the less people will be shocked, amazed, asking questions, glomming onto me, following me around, praising me, ad infinitum, you get the picture. People can't believe this watch. They are so taken by it that, modestly, in the 200 times people have asked me about it or commented on it, 100 times I've taken it off, handed it to them, and shown them how super light and beautiful it is. I've met one other person since buying this watch over 1.5 years ago that recognized the brand, knew what it was, and was in fact wearing his own at the time he noticed mine. It's been a journey with this watch, it has a scrape across the face now, the band is a bit wrinkled and weathered, the wood has become a bit dirty around the edges and rim of the face, but it is still ticking, still getting compliments, and still beautifully unique. I am not the type who likes a heavy metal watch, or needs extra bezels, or has a lot of fancy stuff. This watch started out as a special occasion watch and quickly turned into an every day wearer. It has stood the test of time and proven durable, aesthetically pleasing, a fun conversation starter, and a loyal friend ticking away through the infinity of timelessness. I got one for a friend as a gift and plan to do so again soon. I will never buy another type of watch.

Super stylish with additional extras
Since I opened it, I just loved it. Never even though a bamboo watch can be that attractive. Beautiful combination for yellow and brown colour. It came in a very lucrative and presentable box too.[♠ Design ♠]I had the dear head, which is created so perfectly. There are 3 dials, one for second too. The vertical lines giving it an extra edge in designing with bamboo. There is only one button to fix your time.[♠ Build quality ♠]Pure leather belt, very sturdy hooking system, ultra light. The main watch is very strong despite using bamboo. The connections between each parts are done very professionally. It is not waterproof, something I never expected from a bamboo watch, however it is splash proof.This is a purely designer item. Hence there is no date function, not that I cared. I have my mobile to take care of that. The two extra bracelet with this make an excellent and elegant look on the hand. Even on my brown hand.Overall I am happy, its a simple item with a simple price tag. I hope you found my review helpful for the time I took to help you decide.

Beautiful looking watch, no free bracelet!
I ordered this watch as I wanted a nice cheaper one to wear rather than my expensive one when I'm just knocking about walking the dogs etc. It arrived in a very sturdy box and looks far more expensive than its price tag. The leather strap is nice and sturdy and the watch itself is lovely. Very easy to set, it's just a basic timepiece. Unfortunately I didn't get the free bracelets with mine that everyone else seems to have received. The watch looks great though! Hope it's as tough as it looks.

Super watch poor service.
The watch was great, goes through airport serurity with out setting off alarms, looks good feels good and would purchase again. BUT however it stopped working after 6 months the battery was replaced worked for 2 weeks stopped again. Sent 2 email to Wonbee to claim under the warrenty - no reply. It a pity because it is a super looking watch . If you purchaase one hope it does not go wrong because there will be no hlep from Wonbee

Working well after 1 year
It has been nearely 1 year that I baught this Wonbee watch, and it is working quite good so far. At the beginning when I saw it I was okay to buy it as long as it works for some months to make it worth its price, but I can say today that I am positively surprised by its quality besides its look. Adding that with time the leather gains a nice rustic colour. It was a good deal. Cheers Zoey and the team

Good quality watch
I got this for myself, I am a woman and I think this watch fits both women and men. I find it beautiful, lightweight and the design is very uncommon. I have been using it for a while and never made my wrist itchy, it is instead comfortable to wear. I can barely hear the tick-tack from the pointers even in a silent environment.The only thing I think could be improved is the hour bars which could stand out slightly more from the others to help identify time more quickly with just a glance. Nevertheless, overall I like this watch.

Amazing value for money, sweet timepiece
Fell in love with it.Amazing looking watch, very lightweight and really comfy to wear all day around.It maybe lacks features like backlight, date, luminous hands and such, but it is something different and full of character and feels like wearing something natural, something else than steel or plastic.Feels quality made and well crafted plus the box also contained a pair of sweet wooden beads bracelets that perfectly fit to wear with the watch.Great gift not just for outdoor and nature enthusiasts

Much better than expected!
Wow what a watch. it is so stylish. I am amazed that a wooden watch is so good. it is accurate and it's so light. Even my dog likes it. When I throw its stick, the stick flies further as I don't have the weight of a traditional watch dragging on my arm. Sadly the dog grabs the wooden watch instead of chasing the stick so the lightness of the watch is offset by the weight of a dog hanging off my arm and I can't see the time. Luckily my dog has a natural abilty to tell the time - apparently it's food time!

Beautifully designed watch...
Beautifully designed watch, unusual and lightweight. I did have a very similar watch from a Chinese company, but this one seems to be better made, and has subtle design features which make it more attractive. I didn't get the free bracelets that some other reviewers have mentioned, but no matter. Very good value for money.

Dear Wonbee,Last year I bought a watch from Amazon, classic bamboo coloured with the infinite sign. I was so impressed by the style and after I started to wear it my friends and colleagues were as impressed as me. Everything good, after one year the watch is still looking amazing. Although, couple of days ago during my vacation something sad happened. While I was walking on the street me and my wife we heard a sound. We were scared because it was like a window cracking. We looked around and up and then down. We saw glass parts and after seconds we realized that my watch glass was missing. The whole glass went out and fall on the ground.

Ideal gift
Bought as a late Christmas present for my husband, who was thrilled with it. It looks classy, seems very well made and is a good talking point as wooden watches aren't all that common. Would heartily recommend.

Natural Wonder
Fantastic weightless wonder. The natural bamboo and leather feels great against your skin. The time piece is accurate and the design evokes tranquility. I love the additional accompanying bracelets. They really complete the 'look'. Excellent value for money and fabulous comments whilst wearing this natural wonder!

Cool watch.
I bought this watch about 6 months ago. It keeps excellent time. Light as a feather. The strap has took on a more darker weathered look than it's original lighter colour. Finally it gets a lot more appreciative remarks from people than other more expensive watches I own. I virtually wear this watch exclusively now. Don't bother with any of the others at all.For the price what more could you want.

Style & Sustainability
This watch is fantastic. I'm fussy about how watches look. I think expensive watches look vulgar. My watch is simple and elegant. It hasn't turned the skin on my wrist green like so many previous watches have and it is the only watch that a random member of the public has complemented me on - having never seen a wooden watch.

Lightweight and beautiful
I cannot believe the price of this watch. It's so beautiful and well made. Best of all, it's so light, you can hardly feel it on your wrist.
