There’s no shortage of cool watches on the market today, but originality and design go hand-in-hand in creating a successful timepiece in a crowded market. Originality is the first word that comes to mind regarding “The Slab Watch, currently in the middle of a Kickstarter campaign. Its sleek, minimalist design is crafted from re-purposed seven-ply maple wood skateboard decks. The face of the watch is clean and simple, sporting only the logo along with the glow-in-the-dark tick marks and hands that make telling the time a breeze in poorly-lit environments.
The best part about The Slab Watch is its Miyota 8215 Mechanical Movement, which renders the watch automatic by harnessing its own kinetic energy. This means that no batteries are required. Ever.—Making it the world’s first automatic wood watch. The Skateboard part is pretty cool too. Hit up their Page to learn more.
