Will a Votch watch fit me?
Our watches are for everyone and are not gender specific, the strap size is suitable for anyone with a wrist with a circumference of 15 – 21 centimetres. Should you need an additional hole added if you have very small wrists, we recommend going to a local jeweller who will be able to add one very quickly and easily, ensuring your Votch fits you perfectly. Please note we cannot accept returns should the strap have been modified.
Can I buy a strap by itself?
Yes you can, please head to the Individual Straps section under Shop on our website.
Is a Votch watch waterproof?
Votch watches are 3ATM water resistant. This means that your Votch is absolutely fine for everyday use (it can cope with a few accidental drops of water). The watch is not suitable for showering, swimming, snorkeling, bathing and other water based activities. Damages caused under these circumstances will not be covered by your guarantee.
Watches & Straps
All of our watches have been designed so straps can easily be swapped over giving you a fresh new look without the need to buy a new watch face.

Cruelty Free
All our products are vegan and cruelty free. This was the main reason for starting Votch and this runs through the core of everything we do. No creature will ever be harmed in the creation of any Votch product.
Female Founded
Votch was founded by Laura Way, who as well as being a passionate animal rights advocate is also keen to help fellow mothers in the workplace and has been at the forefront of helping those wanting to get back into work after having children by offering remote working and flexible hours.
Giving Back
Our giving back program has now provided support to many charities across the world. For every Votch product purchased we donate 10% of the profits to our charity of the season, which changes every three months.
Durable straps
Our vegan leather utilises sustainable technology that rivals the performance and durability of traditional animal based leather. Not only do our straps look great, but they are hard wearing and comfortable to wear too. There’s no better time to go cruelty free.
