Over the past few years it seems wooden watches have gotten really popular. Being an admirer of watches myself I’ve taken notice to the rise of the wooden watch market. I always found watches to be interesting which is something I probably picked up from my dad.

I remember as a youngster going into my dad’s bedroom and marveling at the watches he had sitting on the top of his dresser. He had various styles with golden and silver wrist bands but his favorite was probably his aviator watch with a black band. He spent most of his working life in the military and his aviator watch would show military time so I’m guessing that’s why he liked it.

He never had a wooden watch and I don’t think they even made them back then. I remember when I first saw one I thought it looked kind of odd. But after seeing more and more of them I found them to be pretty cool to the point that I bought one.

Since this market has grown so much, I decided that maybe it would be helpful to show what are considered some of the best wooden watches on the market right now. Below, there are 10 wooden watches featured that rank as some of the best. They do make them for women but these are ten of the best wooden watches for men, and many of them can also be worn by women.
