If you’ve been reading my posts for some time, you’ll remember that I’ve looked at watches that feature a variety of different materials in their construction.  Today, we’re going to have a look at Sprout Watches, who actually manufacture their cases from a corn resin.  This makes for a very lightweight watch that, should the need arise, is biodegradable as well.
