It’s my first automatic watch. Had been working great until a few months ago, now it seems to struggle to keep a charge and occasionally sticks even when it should still have a charge. Need to find a place to take it in, sadly I’ve now moved from London to Chicago or I’d have just brought it back to the seller.

    I hate to tell you this, but that’s probably just a cheapo watch. Search Amazon for wood watches and you’ll probably find it quickly.

      Took a gander, and yeah it looks like it’s probably an older model “Dentrily”. Same designs on the outside of the face and the mechanism looks almost identical. https://a.co/d/5wiBb4o

      I don’t mind though. I like the way this one looks, and if/when I want to upgrade to a quality brand, I know the look I’m after.

        I like a cheap watch, I made my two watches using Ali parts and Seiko movements. They look good enough to me and do their job perfectly. If anything goes wrong it won’t break the bank to fix. Imagine scratching a rolex!

      One of my favorite watches is the cheapo Foxbox dive watch. Sometimes the price doesn’t matter.

      (Altho I’m a cheap watch aficionado. I miss r/chinesewatches )

    Also replaced the band - The original one broke within a month, and the replacement they put on lasted less than a year after that. This new one is muuuuch sturdier than the stock genuine leather ones.

      The whole housing is wood as far as I can tell yeah. You can feel the grain on the face for sure
