- We look at the London based watch company William Wood and its Rose Valiant. It's a beautiful divers watch that honors the late grandfather of the founder of William Wood--who served in the British Fire Services for more than 25 years. Jonny Garrett, the founder of William Wood, pays nice homage to firefighters all around the world with a nicely themed collection of watches.
Thank you, Jonny and William Wood, for sponsoring this video.

Not a bad looking watch...the dome is mesmerizing!
Hi, iDid. Agreed on a cool domed and tinted blue crystal. 🤙
I'm not really into rose gold but their straps are totally awesome.
Easily one of the best rubber straps in my opinion, Greg.
Really a nice looking piece -- The strap is really nice and the blue tint on the crystal is pretty cool too. Cheers.
We’re in agreement, James. ☕️
on its face both are expensive but i think the uniqueness of the design makes it worth the price over, say, an oris. great find rich. and always a solid caseback for me. i detest the gimmicky display back on all but the watches that have something to display
Hey, Ed. I agree there is enough here to distinguish the Valiant. Also agreed on most casebacks.
I’ve heard of William Wood but I haven’t seen one in the hand or reviewed yet. Maybe one other review as I think about it, but it wasn’t as nicely told like your review. I don’t mind the Seiko movement if it was priced less. But I like your sellita movement. Overall this watch carries great aesthetics and story. Great job my boy Rich. 👍
Thank you, Stephen. It’s definitely worth a look especially in person.👌
Very cool box crystal and a neat idea to tint the crystal blue. I can see the added visual colors this way and it makes sense. But why offer 2 different movements? Maybe just stick with one so it’s less confusing. I’m all about options but movement options is not the kind I like. The valiant looks really good though. I’m with you on that strap it looks incredible and that may just be enough for me to go for it.
An excellent strap indeed. Let me know your thoughts if you decide on it, Tom. 🍻
William Wood watches tells a very nice story with their watches. It resonates with me for all the right reasons. It's not often a strap steals the show but it's very unique and deserves to be singled out. I don't much care about having to choose between movements but the price difference makes it easy to opt with the NH35. Is the bezel inlay aluminum or ceramic? Nice video brother.
It’s an aluminum insert, Rich. And agreed on the brand’s storyline and history. 👌
I love the straps but could not justify the price for the full watch. Are these straps compatable with other dials?
These straps are available to purchase by themselves, Ian. They should fit any model if it’s the right size.
Do they sell straps separately ? Good video Richie 👍
Yep they certainly do sell the upcycled straps separately. They are absolutely worth it, JJ. 👌
