Valerii Danevych is not your average watch maker. You see, Valerii builds watches that are completely made of wood! He has dedicated his life to making watches, and in 2005, made his first wooden wristwatches, and by 2008 - his first wooden pocket watch. To say that it is entirely wood, though, is not entirely true, as Danevych makes use of one, and only one, metal spring to hold his invention together.
His watches take between 1500 and 2000 hours of work, and he is selling the latest for $132,500.
