Who guides you

Every Timewood workshop instructor was personally trained by the brand's founder, Martin Václavík

"I founded Timewood in 2012 as the first wooden watch brand in Czechia. Watchmaking isn't a job to me, it's a craft I live every day. I opened these workshops so people could try it with their own hands. You leave with an original watch and the story behind it."

Martin Václavík, founder of Timewood

What participants say

"A perfect gift. My husband and I had a wonderful time. Assembling the watch took patience and a steady hand, but with a great instructor we built beautiful wooden watches exactly to our taste."
Olga
"Highly recommend it. You don't just get an experience, you leave with a keepsake. A watch you built yourself, in a design nobody else will have."
Petr
"A genuinely great workshop. I got it as a gift and wasn't sure at first, but the nerves passed fast. The instructor welcomed us warmly, explained everything and never rushed us. The hardest part was choosing the design. I can only recommend it."
Roman
