~~Sprout watches handle surf in style
These cool Sprout wristwatches surprised me on several levels: They’re fashionable, affordable and eco-friendly. Materials include biodegradable corn resin with a durability similar to plastic, and organic cotton, bamboo, conflict-free diamonds and cork. And no worries, the water-resistant styles can hit the surf. This violet timepiece ($80) has a corn resin case and bracelet, wooden bezel, natural mother-of-pearl illuminated dial and quartz movement. Styles for men, women and kids start at $30. Find Sprout watches at Super Citizen at Kahala Mall, Adore Clothing at 4211 Waialae Ave., Yoganics Hawaii in Kealakekua on Hawaii island and Bamboo Works in Kapaa, Kauai, or check www.sproutwatches.com. — Christie Wilson
