Inside Redwood: The Design and Specs of the Canadian Tool Watch
Redwood Watches has shared an overview of the technical specifications and design philosophy that define their timepiece collections. The brand emphasizes that their watches are hand-assembled in their workshop in Canada and are specifically designed to function as tools for adventure. Each watch features a minimum water resistance rating of 100 meters (330 feet) and utilizes sapphire crystals for superior scratch resistance compared to standard watch glass.
The brand highlights their focus on 'off-grid' movements, primarily utilizing solar-powered or automatic calibers to ensure reliability without the need for battery replacements. Legibility is prioritized through the application of multiple layers of Super-LumiNova on the dials. This combination of modern durability and vintage-inspired design is the result of extensive research into military standards, photo archives, and consultations with horological experts.
