This completely green-friendly biodegradable watch by [Sprout](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sprout-worlds-plantable-pencils) is a great option for those of you concerned for the environment. This [vibrant candy-colored analog wrist watch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gshock-2100-series-rainbow-watch) is a great alternative because all parts of the watch are biodegradable.

The wrap around the watch is made from organic cotton, biodegradable corn resin and the dial of the watch is made from bamboo. Even the crystal lens is made from recycled mineral crystal. The cutest thing about this product is that when you purchase it online, the box comes with a mini grass garden. And since this watch is very reasonably priced, it is great eco-friendly alternative to owning a wrist watch. Plus we all know that telling the time by sundial isn't that accurate so get to school, work and social gatherings on time with this [pastel colored eco-friendly biodegradable watch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roam-smart).
