Introducing the Oak & Oscar Ashland, in Collaboration with Wilson Sporting Goods
As a die-hard Red Sox fan, you can imagine that when I saw that the press materials for the new baseball themed Ashland by Oak & Oscar boasted it as being ready just in time for the postseason, I felt the twist of the knife. While my Red Sox were unable to match their historic 2018 run with a competitive follow up campaign, Oak & Oscar, you could say, remains on a hot streak. The small Chicago based brand has released a series of highly regarded, limited edition timepieces over the last several years, and have not only developed a cult following among watch enthusiasts, but are creating a unique aesthetic that is all their own in the watch space, with distinctive waffle dials, utilitarian case designs, and mechanical complications that offer a ton of utility. While the Ashland is, at its core, a time only watch, it offers a whole new kind of non-mechanical complication that is whimsical, fun, and sure to appeal of baseball fans of all stripes, whether or not your team is playing in October.
