Caring for Your Lumbery Wooden Watch
With proper care, your Lumbery wooden watch can remain a timeless part of your wardrobe for years to come. Follow these simple guidelines to ensure your watch stays in pristine condition.
Protect from Temperature & Humidity Changes
Sudden shifts in temperature or humidity can affect the natural wood of your watch. Avoid leaving your watch in extreme conditions, such as a hot car on a sunny day or outdoors on a freezing night. Excessive heat can cause the wood to swell and crack, while extreme cold can shrink it, putting stress on the glass and pins.
Humidity control is equally important. High humidity may cause the wood to absorb moisture and swell, while overly dry conditions can lead to shrinkage, both increasing the risk of cracking.
Store with Care
When not in use, keep your watch stored indoors in its original packaging or a dedicated watch or jewelry box. This will protect it from overly humid or dry environments, ensuring its durability.
Condition the Wood Regularly
To maintain the beauty and longevity of your watch, condition the wood periodically. We recommend using Tung Oil or Lemon Oil, easily available at hardware stores or online.
- Pour a small amount (about 1 teaspoon) of oil onto a soft cloth.
- Gently buff the surface of the wood using the cloth, ensuring even coverage.
- This conditioning process helps protect the wood from the elements, enhances its natural luster, and keeps your watch clean and well-maintained.
By following these care tips, your Lumbery wooden watch will remain a stunning accessory, showcasing both its craftsmanship and your commitment to sustainable luxury.
