Recycle watch batteries (choking hazards) at jewellery shops. Send broken watches and straps (along with odd earrings, broken jewellery and any-currency bank notes) freepost to Animal Free Research UK (to raise funds for humane research). Or War Paws (to help animals in war zones).
Detrash (Dorset) offers watches made from recycled stainless steel (one ‘leather’ is made from Budweiser beer waste!) or apple leather (from waste juice in Italy). Many straps are made from upcycled ocean trash, with a portion of proceeds helping Surfers Against Sewage.
These watches are sold with a 1-year guarantee, and many are water-resistant. In colours inspired by the sea (blue, green, grey), the range includes a a California dial mix (Arabic & Roman numerals).
