Featuring a minimalistic exterior that is made even more simple with the small clock face, it looks more like a [cuff accessory](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cuff-watch) than a watch. Available for $120, the Vestal 'Rosewood' watch is entirely [biodegradable](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/g5600bg5). Although you probably won't be throwing this one out any time soon, if you did, it's a good fact to know. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.4/10 - Popularity: 25% | Activity: 70% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Biodegradable Fashion Accessories:** There is an opportunity for designers to create more biodegradable fashion accessories. - **Rustic Minimalism:** Minimalistic designs that incorporate natural materials are a rising trend within the fashion industry. - **Sustainable Timepieces:** Customers are showing interest in watches that prioritize durability and environmental impact. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion:** Fashion designers and accessory manufacturers can adapt to biodegradable trends and organic designs. - **Watches:** Watch manufacturers can innovate by incorporating sustainable materials and biodegradable technology in their timepieces. - **Sustainability:** Professionals in sustainable industries can reap the benefits of a growing interest in eco-friendly products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Wood-Created Progressive Jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-jacket.md) - [Plant-Based Leather Smartwatch Bands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reclassic-apple-watch-band.md) - [Japanese Woodwork-Inspired Watch Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/japanese-woodwork.md) - [Sustainable Smartwatch Straps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/native-union-reclassic.md) - [Sustainable Luxury Wristwatches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/circular-1-grenat-dial.md) - [Mountainous Granite-Made Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tissot-rockwatch.md) - [Stealthy Japanese Woodcraft Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mrgb2100b1a.md) - [Forest Ranger-Honoring Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vero-us-forest-service-edition-field-watches.md) - [Timber Smartwatch Charging Mounts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charging-apple-watch-stand.md)
