A NEW TIMELESS COLLECTION

- Krysta Anderson GLEANER WRITER

ENGLISH SUPERMODEL and singer-songwriter Karen Elson once expressed, “Trends come and go, and style evolves. It’s important to have pieces of jewellery that are timeless…” And nothing can be more timeless than watches.

The classic wristed timepiece has made it’s memorable mark in the fashion industry, evolving from a commonplac­e necessity to an ultra-chic accessory. Looking to add sass and sauce to your daily

routine is the new and exclusive watch collection from Herny’s Wood Jamaica.

Herny’s Wood Jamaica is no stranger to fashion. In fact, the company emerged on the local scene last year, offering a wide array of polarised, transition lenses framed in natural wood. Following its success, the cool brand has decided to showcase the limitless abilities of naturally sustained products, expanding its portfolio to the watch department.

Franchise owner of Herny’s Wood Jamaica, Brian Henry,

explained in a recent interview with Outlook that the company focuses its efforts on delivering what nature has to offer by designing beautifull­y unique eco products for an alternativ­e lifestyle. “We at Herny’s Wood Ja set out to make something that was once overlooked be an integral part of your life.”

He, alongside his business partner, Sara-Dee Palmer, has since embarked on this epic eco-friendly journey which seeks to withstand the test of time. Providing a variety of pieces for both males and females, the wristwatch­es, akin to the shades, are sturdy but lightweigh­t, water resistant, reliable, available in different colours, and boast a luxurious appeal for all ages. Yes, there is a style for just about everyone. The pull factor, of course, remains that these watches stay true to the rustic exterior and are totally trendy by nature.

Although this venture is timely, it is still fresh on the market. The feedback the company has received thus far, according to Henry, has been tremendous, with many expressing sheer delight in the impressive style of the watches. And aside from not having much exposure, as with the glasses, the dynamic team hasn’t encountere­d any gruelling obstacles. The business endeavours to be steadfast in its approach of spreading idyllic joy in a ‘ticking’ instance and going the ‘tocking’ distance, one hand at a time. “All the products, both glasses and watches, come with a one-year warranty,” he affirmed.

With a plethora of new products already lined up, this go-getter isn’t giving away any of his secrets: you’ll just have to wait and keep up to date on all the unveilings on the horizon.

On the beat of entreprene­urship, Henry highlighte­d that even though the life of a business owner is exciting and truly an awakening adventure, it is no bed of roses. He advises those aspiring to trek on their own path towards greatness to brace themselves for the struggles that lie ahead. “As the saying would promulgate: the race isn’t for the swift but who can endure. The requisite procedures, of course, can be retained from the Companies Office of Jamaica,” he added.

So if you’re ‘clocking’ for something unique, state-of-theart, authentic and fitting for any occasion, then the one-of-a-kind collection from Herny’s Wood is definitely one to ‘watch’ – the pieces are truly timeless!
