If someone mentions another thing about watches on this site I swear I will…

Relax, this is one for the purists out there and won’t set you back thousands of hard-earned rands. Say hello to your latest hipster-friendly fashion statement, the Bamboo Watch for just R399 (including FREE delivery).

What does this watch have going for it? It is waterproof, will actually float on water (like an old-school carpenter you might be familiar with) and comes with a lifetime warranty. That’s right, you can take this one to the grave with you.

Here’s the beast in action, as worn by our in-house cowboy Henk.

You know some say it might go perfectly with a week in the Karoo desert. Planning for next year starts now.
