There's No Time Like the Present
It’s officially the season of giving—giving thanks, giving gifts, giving love, and giving time. The holidays mark my favorite time of year for many reasons but mostly because I get to shower my family and friends with gifts in all varieties! (And there’s a gift for you at the end of this post!)
You haven’t seen much of the man behind the camera lens, but he’s been an integral part of my blog for the past few years now. If it weren’t for him, I don’t know that I’d be sharing nearly as many outfits as I do, and the photos would just be mirror selfies because I never quite mastered the art of shooting my own photos with a tripod. Ha! I’m so grateful for everything he has done for me both for my blog and for our offline life together, so I was thrilled to gift him a gorgeous wooden timepiece courtesy of Jord (pronounced ‘yode’—rhymes with toad/road).
Please note that I received complimentary product for the purpose of this review but no other monetary compensation. All opinions are my (or my boyfriend's) own.
Korri wears a watch everyday (his everyday watch—the only one he owned until now—tracks his activity and sleep), and he selected the Meridian Horizon to wear for special occasions and for whenever his other watch is charging. ;) The meticulously-crafted Meridian watch features visible mechanics, which is the main aspect he was drawn to, and the Horizon colorway has a beautiful, brilliant sapphire blue face that is exactly his style. It’s definitely eye-catching! The wooden structure is lightweight but don’t feel flimsy thanks to the reinforced steel placed at key points in the band.
The Meridian Horizon came packaged on a pillow in a beautiful humidor cedar watch box along with a cleaning cloth and supply of Jord Preserve wood treatment gel. Jord timepieces, which include styles for men and for women, are sized for the recipient and come with extra links if needed. Most watches are also engravable on the back if you want to add a special message, and the humidor boxes are engravable, too! Some of the watches even have options to customize the various faces and woods. They offer free shipping worldwide, and each watch comes with a one-year warranty.
In the spirit of giving, I’m thrilled to be partnering with Jord to give away a $100 gift code to use towards any of their wooden timepieces for yourself or someone you love! (FYI: Jord also offers Apple watch bands!) Be sure to enter here and share this giveaway with your family and friends, too. The giveaway is open internationally and will end in approximately a month. Thank you so much for supporting the brands that support my blog (and Korri!).
