Sustainable watch with vegan pineapple strap

Description 

A beautiful vegan watch. The classic collection from Votch combines timeless style and design with  signature brushed metal casing across every timepiece. All watches are fitted with quick release straps that are made of highly durable, vegan friendly materials and are easily interchangeable. The straps on this Votch are created from Piñatex, an innovative and sustainable fabric created from pineapple leaf fibres . Piñatex is a by-product from the pineapple harvest and provides additional income for the farmers growing this wondrous fruit. No extra land, pesticides or fertilisers are used in the production of Piñatex, meaning our straps are not only good for animals, but for this beautiful planet we call home too.

Please be aware that as Piñatex is a natural material we recommend you take extra special care of it. To keep your strap in top condition we recommend using a natural wax such as the clear dubbin. It’s best to leave the waxed strap in a warm location for 24 hours and then buff with a soft cloth. Then tell your strap you love it, because it came from pineapples and we think it deserves to be told.

Important Information 

Our watches are for everyone and are not gender specific, the strap size is suitable for anyone with a wrist with a circumference of 15 – 21 centimetres. Should you need an additional hole added if you have very small wrists, we recommend going to a local jeweller who will be able to add one very quickly and easily, ensuring your Votch fits you perfectly. Please note we cannot accept returns should the strap have been modified.

Votch watches are 3ATM water resistant. This means that your Votch is absolutely fine for everyday use (it can cope with a few accidental drops of water). The watch is not suitable for showering, swimming, snorkeling, bathing and other water based activities. Damages caused under these circumstances will not be covered by your guarantee.
