THE RACING CIRCUIT WRISTWATCH

Wood has been a perennial material enjoyed since time immemorial. True to its legendary status as both the most common and most unique raw material of all time, it has now resurges as the strongest and stiffest composite material for the modern age in a form of cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) pulp extract. Imagine, it has wrestled carbon fibers and Kevlar out not just in strength and stiffness potential, but more so in area of greatest possibilities and global impact as futuristic composite to forthcoming technologies that demand the qualities more than existing man-made composites can handle. If only this has been discovered before, CFCs and Kevlar would never have a foothold in the modern age. To celebrate the nature-given bounty that have cradled even the lowest of civilizations and fostered everyone’s homes regardless of status, a custom watch is designed to highlight the grains and textures of wood—in a form of a crowning walnut-wood composite spoiler and oak-wood, rooty-waist modern sports car—refined in the rigors of race rally circuits, encased in clear epoxy resin and trimmed with titanium, chromium, and silver (or gold) inlays (reminiscent of the classic embellished furniture, statues, and sacred artifacts of holy temples way back from enigmatic ancient civilizations). As time is crucial in every race/rally circuits, the hands of time are enraptured in a coliseum-like wristwatch casing rim with the scale model of the most expansive futuristic race circuit in an infinity shape that stands for one defining quality of time—that is, being timeless… The wooden racecar shell is customizable for customers to opt for vintage, classics, corporate brand, carting, or F1 racecar models. Mazda RX-8 can be handed out to rotary-engine enthusiasts. Model wristwatch can be gifted to limited-edition car buyers. Event-inspired racecar wristwatches can be added as prizes to victors. The quality hardwood case can be inlayed with gems and precious metals by custom jewelers. The watch indicator face can be repositioned independent of the indicator hands’ position with an additional gearing mechanism integrated in the knob shaft for advance models. The adjustable leather strap is very unique with the catch just integrated into the casing, such that it has a very clean and lean underside of the wrist. The wearer would just tab out the two golden catches each beneath the rear tires of the racecar casing to unlock the wooden inserted strap end from the cavity below the compartment side of the racecar figure.
