Woodoo Case
The brand deals with wood products, and among them produces wristwatches. The models turn out to be very stylish: laconic, discreet and elegant.
Such unisex watches are suitable for a person with any style of clothing. The design of the models is realized by using different shades of wood, natural wood patterns and additional elements. Each model comes with a special stem, so you can easily change the length of the strap.
All watches of this brand are water-repellent and use Japanese quartz movements. It is considered one of the best in the world due to its quality and reliability.
Zavod
A space of time, design and meetings, where the very concept of time and beauty is explored with accessible tools through history and art. The Zavod concept store was founded in Ukraine in 2010.
It has two watch brands: Rider1991 and Real Time, launched in 2023. Zavod creates niche watches, glasses and accessories.
Kleynod
The Kiev factory produces watches under this brand. The company has been serially producing watches since 1997, and the wristwatch brand itself was launched in 2002.
It is important for the founders that everyone who wears a Ukrainian watch feels comfort, pleasant emotions, as well as belonging to an outstanding nation. Even the name of the Kleynod brand means treasure, a symbol of power that once distinguished Ukrainian hetmans.
In their work, craftsmen use Swiss movements and stainless steel cases with gold plating. All watches undergo a 4-level technical control principle.
The brand has more than 150 models of women's and men's watches from six original collections: Antonov Watches by Kleynod, Kleynod Independence, Embroidery by Kleynod, Kleynod Forces, the classic collection and the Kleynod Champion football series.
ZIZ
The Ukrainian brand of souvenirs, accessories and watches creates emotional things. The models are different – with a discreet monochromatic dial, drawings and bright straps. The brand can even create a dial according to the customer’s sketch.
Straps can be different – leather, metal or fabric. The main feature is that each model is unique. ZIZ does not have mass production, and each watch has its own face. This is only possible with a creative and individual approach to creating an accessory.
Kristan Time
A professional team of artists, designers and marketers creates amazing, high-quality handmade watches based on Game of Thrones and Vikings. Wooden accessories with an unusual dial look very stylish.
The Kristan Time brand also cares about the environment. If you buy one watch, they plant one tree.
