THE MAHOGANY
TIMEPIECE DESCRIPTION:
We’ve been crafting some of the world’s most unique, award winning and storied timepieces since 2011. Since this watch is handmade and unique to you we can 100% guarantee your watch will be 1 of 1. If you have any questions about our work please reach out!
The dial of this one-off piece is made from a honduran mahogany provided to us by a custom guitar maker. We started by cutting the wold into fairly thin pieces but from there the rest of the crafting was done by hand. We sanded the dial down and then painted epoxy on the front and back multiple times. This process ensures the stability of the wood so it doesn’t crack over time.
The product turned out to be as beautiful as we’d hoped and the texture and rich colors of the mahogany are sure to stop anyone for a second look.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to build a custom watch?
Depending on the complexity between 8 - 10 weeks.
How are you better than other companies?
We’re not! We’re different. Our focus isn’t on mass producing anything. Our focus is transferring a customer’s story to his/her wrist or pocket.
What movement do you use for your watches?
We use a Swiss ETA 6498-1 for our watches.
What can I expect when I receive my watch?

What do you mean “most watches lack soul”?
Mass-produced products lose the individuality and personality that hand-crafted watches exude. While mass-produced pieces are great for marking important moments in life, our hand-crafted watches infuse the actual memorabilia representing your moments and bring with them character that’s impossible to replicate.
What kind of material do you work with?
We work with anything! We’ve worked with NFL helmets, MLB cleats, train tracks, military tanks, branding irons, iPhones, and more. Every watch is different so feel free to call or email to chat more about your specific material and see what we can do with it. Email steve@novowatch or call 888-782-2607.
