WhoWood | The Dark Side
The Dark Side
Overview
The perfect flip side to a classic. The Dark Side takes clean mid-century minimalism and plunges it into a deep, matte-black void, leaving only high-contrast retro pops to light the way.
Crafted from premium dark-stained hardwood for a sleek, uniform ink-black finish, this watch acts as the ultimate backdrop for its vibrant details. Striking yellow indicators cut through the black dial at the quarter hours, paired with a matching yellow second hand that tracks the time like a neon beam. It’s a bold, moody, and undeniably sharp statement piece designed for those who own the night.
