IN THE NEWS: Crown & Caliber Spotlights Oak & Oscar and the U.S. Men's Curling Team
Have you ever wondered about the relationship between curling and timekeeping? As U.S. Men's Curling Team member Aidan Oldenburg put it in a recent interview, "Timing is extremely important in curling. We have stopwatches on our waists to track how the ice changes, there are time clocks tracking our pace of play, and the games are almost three hours long, so being aware of the time itself is also important to make sure we are fueling ourselves during the game." In short, timing is crucial! So it makes sense that we partnered with the U.S. Men's Olympic Curling Team to make sure they had robust timekeepers on the wrists during this year's games in Italy.
Writing for Crown & Caliber, Kathleen McGivney explores the importance of timekeeping in curling and Oak & Oscar's relationship with the men's team. The article covers everything from the watch we made for team coach Phill Drobnick in 2017 to the Team Shuster Humbolder 12-HR watches that feature a real piece of curling stone in the caseback to the custom Humboldt GMTs we made this year for Team Casper.
