So I do have my own watch collection of swatches and various brands, but I noticed no one really posts anything about wooden watches. I've been pretty big on them the past couple of years and have 5, but I usually see more classic/staple watch posts on Reddit and now Lemmy (Reddit is dead to me).

What's your opinion; are you for or against wood Timepieces and why?

Who makes wooden watches? I see ads on Instagram etc that look low quality.

I wouldn't say I would be opposed to one in theory, but I can see why they are not super popular. Presumably hard to machine precisely. Consumers assume they won't last very long.
