Feature and Review- JORD WATCHES (Sully Black & Maple)

Hey Lovely Gurlz,

You know what...?? I got something interesting for you all today! How many of you love adorning accessories made of wood or wooden beads. I am sure a lot of us love to put them on with our casuals or beach wear for that bohochic look.

To add to the list of our beautiful wooden necklaces, bracelets and earrings; how about Wooden Watches??? Yes, you got it right... WOODEN WATCHES!!

When JORD approached me for featuring their wood watches on my blog, I couldn't refuse and almost instantly I could feel that how wonderfully these wooden watches fit in our Indian/ Indo-Western/ Western wardrobe.

Let's Talk About JORD...

JORD (Swedish) means earth, soil, land.

"Jord was derived from our desire for a timepiece that modeled our modern lifestyle. Sustainable, efficient, simple, and influenced by experiential living. Jord owners don't just have somewhere to be, they have somewhere to go. We believe our watches tell more than time."

Talking about their creation, JORD says, "Our style is guided by a deep appreciation for natural elements and modern design. Wood is not just a component of our watches, it is the main feature. The intricacy and multiplicity of the woods we utilize in our designs insure that each watch is as distinctive as the owner."

Construction of JORD watches in their own words- "Jord is a collective of artists, designers, and seasoned watchsmiths. Every watch series is planned with the expectation of delivering visible craftsmanship and unyielding utility. We choose our materials and movements with forethought. Consideration of best use and added benefit are central to our decision making process. Are methods ensure that our watches are not just worn, they're used."

So, once I agreed to feature these watches, Paul, the Marketing Manager of Jord was sweet enough to let me select my preferred watch from these 

I picked Sully- Black & Maple reason being dual tone and attractive dial as compared to simpler Fieldcrest and Ely. Then started the waiting process... waiting for the shipment to come all the way from The U.S.A.

To my surprize, the wait was not so long and in less than 15 days... I received the parcel and couldn't be patient any more to see the much awaited JORD WOOD WATCH. 

Believe me, the watch looked the same... as elegant and smart as in the picture and I must say, I was reallllly impressed. Don't believe me... have a look at my very own Sully

These are some pretty and chic watches, which look amazing with your formal or semi formal work wear...

or your casual weekend wear specially if you team it up with few more bracelets for a bohochic look...

To tell you about how the watch feels... it's super light (which was a surprise for me considering it's made of wood). The dial has wooden texture, which looks pretty and you know what I can't help but show off my Jord Sully

I know my smile says it all... how happy I feel receiving this beautiful gift from Jord. Can't thank Paul enough for the opportunity to associate with Jord. Thank you so much Paul!!

Now Now... don't get jealous, while gifting this watch, Jord and Paul did not forget my wonderful readers... there is something coming up for you all soon... So keep reading....
