Handcrafted Cuckoo Clock Watch

Description

This has been a labor of love! Maybe it is the German ancestry in me, but I love cuckoo clocks, and one day I decided that I wanted to carry one around on my wrist. After searching everywhere for one and coming up empty, I took matters into my own hands and made one myself! I'm so happy with the result that I decided to make more and share the cuckoo love. :)

The details on this watch are meticulously handmade by me. The band is hand-sewn from a funky faux-bois cotton, lined with interfacing. The cuckoo clock face is made of resin poured into a mold (that was formed from an original cuckoo clock sculpt made by me) and is covered in a clear glaze. The pendulum is made from an upcycled silver-tone chain and real wooden beads.

The actual watch workings are made by Darice with Japanese movement, stainless steel backing, and a removable back for battery replacement. (Battery is included.) PLEASE NOTE that the watch face may vary slightly from the one pictured. There are six holes in the band, so the watch is one-size-fits-all. (I have an uber-tiny wrist, and it even fits me!) I'd estimate this will fit wrist sizes ranging from 5 1/2 inches to 7 inches. (If you have a larger wrist, email me and perhaps I can add an extra hole for you.)

This can be worn by male or female, and will make you smile every time you check the time. :) Please note that no bird actually pops out or cuckoos, but hey, that would probably be distracting after a day, huh?
