This watch is made from wood. Almost all of it. In addition to wristband and case, even the dial face is crafted out of wood. Any markings are engraved and not painted or affixed. The upshot of all of this is that this watch’s natural and unique wood grain also appears where you look the most: in the centre.
The Opis UR-M3 is available in various styles, some making use of the same kind of hardwood throughout, some offsetting the dial face with a different wood-type. You are also presented with a selection of two geometrical engraving patterns to indicate the hour positions. There is no distracting writing and the patterns themselves are engraved into the natural wood. In this way, the watch manages to concentrate the eye on the unique beauty of its natural materials.
Opis watches set you apart from the crowd, not by being garish, but by showing your quiet, natural style.
The natural wood used for both casing and wrist bands is not treated in any way, except for a protective coat of oil. This is enough to make your hand-crafted watch durable for daily use. It withstands a refreshing walk in the rain with no problem at all. Get back in tune with nature and yourself and enjoy life as you like it. This watch doesn’t tell you what to do. It just reminds you of less-hasty times.
And so that you can rely on your natural timepiece it is driven by the 2035-movement to ensure precise timing and long battery life.
