§ 02 · Pick by occasion
No pocket watch is ever
No pocket watch is ever
bought without a reason.
Four reasons sit behind the bulk of what leaves the shelves. Pick the one that matches your moment and the catalogue will collapse to fit.
The occasion
For the groomsmen
Matched Hunters for the wedding party, each wound and checked before it ships. Arrives packed so the morning-of box opens cleanly.

The occasion
For the retirement
A career spent watching the clock is neatly closed by handing someone one of their own. A quiet acknowledgement the daily punch-in is finished.

The occasion
For a father
The rare present that gets opened twice — once at the table, once every time he checks it. The kind of object that gets handed on again later.

The occasion
For a milestone
Twenty-one. Forty. Sixty. A watch is one of the few gifts that outlasts the birthday it marks.

The Half-Hunter
Glazed lid · read without opening

§ 07 · Before you order
Questions the house commonly receives.
What does shipping cost to New Zealand?
Standard shipping to New Zealand is $14.99 (7–14 business days) and is free on orders over $99. Express is $19 (3–7 business days). In-stock orders are usually dispatched within 1–2 business days (Monday to Friday) from our warehouse in Brisbane, Australia.
What movements sit inside these watches?
The range includes hand-wound mechanical and Swiss quartz watches. A hand-wound watch needs regular winding at the crown; quartz uses a battery. Check the movement listed for the watch you choose.
Will it arrive ready to hand over?
Yes. Add a matching chain (sold separately), and spend $80 or more with code BAMBOOBOX for a free bamboo gift box. If you have a date to meet, message us before you order.
What is your returns window?
You have 60 days from delivery to return or exchange, provided the watch is unworn and in its original packaging. You pay the return postage; we cover it only where the Consumer Guarantees Act requires us to.
