Choosing women's vegan watches
Women's vegan watches swap animal leather for straps in Piñatex from pineapple leaf fibre, AppleSkin made partly from apple waste, other vegan leathers or steel mesh. Start with the case size: smaller faces suit slim wrists, while larger ones make more of a statement. Then pick the finish, as gold and rose gold cases look warm with neutral straps, while silver suits navy, grey and black. Votch makes most of the range, with Bear Essentials and The Sustainable Watch Company making the rest. We look at each brand's materials and how its watches are made before listing it.
Petite, Lyka and solar watches
Votch makes the Petite with a 33mm case in gold, with straps in Piñatex, sage, linen and brown. The Lyka has a 36mm case and a blue dial, and the Solar Classic has a 38mm case and is charged by light, so a sunny windowsill keeps it going. The Aalto is a 40mm watch with a nautical look. Votch also sells boxed gift sets, including Aalto sets with spare straps.
Wooden watches
Bear Essentials makes wooden watches with 42mm cases in woods such as sandalwood, zebrano and maple, including the Willow, Sakura and Thistle, which pairs white marble with rose gold. The Sustainable Watch Company makes wood watches such as the Pine and Magnolia. Bear Essentials offers its watches with vegan or real leather straps, so choose the vegan option if you avoid leather. Wood is light on the wrist, and every case has its own grain.
Straps and care
Votch makes straps in 16mm, 18mm and 20mm, plus AppleSkin straps for Apple Watch, and The Sustainable Watch Company makes vegan straps for Apple Watch in ebony and olive and a bamboo watch box. Measure the gap between the lugs before buying a strap. Wipe straps with a damp cloth, and keep wooden watches out of water. A watch makes a lasting Christmas present. Women's Bracelets has bangles to stack, Women's Sunglasses has wooden frames, Watches has more styles, and Vegan presents and gift ideas: 25 where it actually matters has more gift ideas.
Common questions
What size watch suits a small wrist?
A case of 33mm to 36mm, such as the Votch Petite or Lyka, sits neatly on a slim wrist. Larger cases make more of a statement.
Are all the watches vegan?
Not all. Bear Essentials offers vegan or real leather straps, so pick the vegan option before you order.
How does a solar watch work?
It is charged by light through the dial. Wear it often or leave it near a window so it stays charged.
Are the watches nickel free?
The listings do not state this. If you have a nickel allergy, contact us before you order so we can check with the brand.
