The Polar Bear watch from Bear Essentials takes its cues from the Arctic: the clean, pale tones of ice and snow translated into a 42mm case built from zebra wood, a material that brings genuine grain variation to every piece. No two are identical.
Bear Essentials began in a family home workshop and has kept handcrafting at the centre of production rather than scaling it away. The zebra wood casing on this watch has been individually sanded and treated to handle splashes and everyday wear without needing further maintenance — practical durability that comes from the material and the process, not a coating applied after the fact.
The watch runs on a battery-operated quartz movement and comes with pin-loaded straps that swap without tools, so you can change the look to suit the occasion. Two strap options are available at checkout:
- Soft Navy Leather Strap
- Soft Black Leather Strap
Both vegan and genuine leather strap options exist across the Bear Essentials range and are also available for separate purchase.
Personalisation is available on request — contact Bear Essentials directly via their contact page for a quote.
Warranty and care: Every watch ships with a care and use information slip. Bear Essentials provides a 24-month warranty and a 24/7 support channel for any issues that arise after purchase.
Sustainability: For every Bear Essentials purchase, a tree is planted in regions most affected by deforestation. The brand uses wood from sustainable forestry and incorporates recycled pellets into its materials, choosing natural alternatives over plastic as a deliberate production decision rather than a marketing position.
About Our Brand Bear Essentials
Travel accessories are often mass-produced from synthetic materials, leaving environmentally conscious explorers with limited options that align with their values. Bear Essentials addresses this by creating durable, considered products for those who wish their equipment to be as thoughtful as their journeys.
Every Bear Essentials item is handcrafted using natural materials, including wood from sustainable forestry and recycled pellets, ensuring each piece is unique. The brand prioritises natural alternatives over plastic, a practical manufacturing decision that speaks to their commitment to responsible production.
Originating from a family home workshop, Bear Essentials maintains handcrafting as central to its production, refusing to compromise craft for scale. For every purchase, a tree is planted, directly replenishing the natural resources used and closing the loop between consumption and environmental return.
