“Moments are bigger than minutes and your watch should tell more than time,” states the JORD Wood Watches website.
I have to admit before I received my JORD Frankie Dark Sandalwood & Smoke watch to review for this post, I hadn’t thought much about what my wrist-wear told besides time.
While I sport a watch to know the time, especially while traveling, I do view my watch as a fashion accessory. It’s a part of my planned outfit, an extension of my personal style, and a visual expression of who I am to the world.
Confident. Stylish. Creative. Unique. Me.
That’s what I want my watch and my overall style to say about who I am.
Simply chic, my winter wardrobe is built around black suede and leather booties, chunky knits, and so many cozy scarves. Since I wear a lot of black, I love to accessorize to personalize my ensembles, showcasing my creativity and unique style. Naturally, my new JORD wood watch has quickly become my favorite winter accessory.
With a band of richly toned dark sandalwood, a chic smoke face, and rose gold hardware, the Frankie Dark Sandalwood & Smoke watch is the perfect accent to my cold-weather wear.

Where Cozy Meets Chic: My Big-City Winter Style
JORD’s luxury timepieces are modeled for those of us who are modern go-getters and jet setters with places to go — not just places to be.
Just last month I traveled to New York City, where I donned luxe layers for comfort and warmth. Dashing from the New York Times Travel Show to Restaurant Week dinners to Kinky Boots on Broadway, I also styled my outfits to look fashionable yet professional.
With my JORD Frankie Dark Sandalwood & Smoke watch, I added a luxurious touch and a hint of rose gold to my classic black-and-white winter ensemble.
What I Love About JORD Wood Watches
When I was asked to share how I style my JORD watch, I was thrilled because it is such a cool watch. It’s unlike any other women’s watch I’ve seen, and it perfectly suits my minimalist winter style. I particularly love the deep color of the natural dark sandalwood, which is hand finished and pretreated with tung oils.
I especially like the oversized face of the Frankie series, but JORD also offers a variety of faces — in size and color — and types of wooden bands in both its women’s and men’s collections. In fact, the Frankie Dark Sandalwood & Smoke is also available as a men’s watch. *Hint hint* to my male readers eyeing this gorgeous timepiece.

I love the watch! and really I love your style in general, it is for sure chic! I am such a mom and behind the styles these days BUTT I can recognize cute when I see it 😉
Love the watch! It definitely suits your style. I like the deep tones, and it is versatile enough to wear with either black or brown tones or even blue jeans. It is subtle but chic, trendy but classic. Love the pic of you and your new watch with the Empire State Building in the background.
Thanks, Mom! I’m loving my new watch. It’s so me, right? You are absolutely right about how it can be styled. I wore it on Sunday to a Super Bowl party with my brown leather boots, blue jeans, a navy t-shirt, and a cozy off-white cardigan.
