We’re also excited to announce that at Wind-Up we’ll be displaying and selling a wide range of our watch accessories, including brand new Harris Tweed rolls and folds. These have yet to even hit our site, and will be available first at Wind-Up.

The new Harris Tweeds Rolls and Folds feature an incredible mottled blue-herringbone fabric source from Scotland’s famous mills. Calling it blue isn’t even fair, it’s a melange of greens and browns, with a dominant cast of blue. It’s one of the most gorgeous, hypnotic fabrics we’ve ever seen.

We needed a great leather to go with this great fabric, so we turned to one of our favorites, Horween Natural Chromexcel. This neutral brown leather brings out the warmth in the fabric, but doesn’t distract from the tweed’s texture or pattern. It will also age beautifully.

For lining, we changed things up a bit and used a midnight blue ultra-suede. It’s near black, but has a distinct, cold sheen to it. This detail, a worn&wound original, keeps your watches safe and provides a great surface for changing straps and resting your watches. We finished the roll with dark brown cord and a wooden toggle, a worn&wound signature detail.

For those looking for a smaller travel case, the two-watch fold is ideal. Another original worn&wound design, the two-watch fold can easily carry up to two watches by facing them in opposite directions. It’s also great for carrying one extra watch and some straps and a tool, or even a watch and a set of glasses. The Harris Tweed Rolls and Folds are American-made and cost $199 and $99 respectively.

We’ll also have a full range of our other products, including our High Craft – Vintage Straps, new Navy, Natural, Moss and Crimson Model 2 Premiums, our Strap-Changing Multi-Tool and more. Be sure to stop by, check them out and of course say hi and talk watches! Can’t wait to see everyone there.
