Your guide
Led by the founder, who personally trained every Timewood instructor — Martin Václavík.
"I founded Timewood in 2012 as the first wooden-watch brand in Czechia. Watchmaking isn't just work — it's a craft I live every day. I started these workshops to share its quiet beauty. You'll leave with a one-of-a-kind watch, and a story to go with it."
— Martin Václavík, founder, Timewood
What people say
"A perfect gift. My husband and I had a wonderful time. Putting the watch together took patience and even more skill, but with our amazing instructor we built beautiful wooden watches exactly to our taste."
"Highly recommend. You don't just get an experience — you walk out with an unforgettable keepsake. A watch you made yourself, in a design no one else will have."
"Truly great workshop. I got it as a gift and was a bit unsure at first, but the nerves quickly passed. The host welcomed us warmly, explained everything, and never rushed. The hardest part was choosing the right design. I can only recommend it."
