Sustainability is no longer just a trend - it’s a responsibility. At Obaku, we believe in creating timepieces that don’t just look good but also do good for the planet. Our commitment to sustainable materials and innovative craftsmanship is reflected in two of our most eco-friendly watches: Kaffe Coconut and Trae Lille Charcoal.
Kaffe Coconut: Time, Crafted from Coffee and Apples
Yes, you read that right—this watch is made from recycled coffee grounds and apple peels! The dial is crafted from compressed coffee grounds, a byproduct of cafés that would otherwise go to waste. Look closely, and you’ll see subtle textures of the coffee particles, giving each watch a unique pattern.
The strap? It’s completely vegan and cruelty-free, made from AppleSkin™, an innovative bio-based leather alternative. This material, sourced from apples grown in Bolzano, Italy, repurposes waste from the fruit juice industry into a durable, stylish, and eco-conscious alternative to leather.
Trae Lille Charcoal: A Fusion of Wood and Minimalist Design
Bringing nature into watchmaking, Trae Lille Charcoal features a sustainably harvested Sapele wood top-ring, making it one of the first ultra-slim watches to incorporate wood into its design. Sapele, a distant cousin of mahogany, adds warmth, character, and a tactile organic feel to the timepiece.
With an incredibly thin 4.8mm case and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, Trae Lille Charcoal is proof that sustainability can be just as refined as it is responsible.
Sustainability Meets Scandinavian Elegance
Both watches embrace Scandinavian minimalism, proving that sustainability doesn’t mean compromising on style. By using recycled and responsibly sourced materials, we’re working towards a greener future - one watch at a time.
If you’re looking for a timepiece that reflects your values and your style, these eco-friendly watches are a step in the right direction.
