Oak & Oscar Quietly Releases Two Watches in Batch Nº1

Owners of Oak & Oscar timepieces received a surprise email in their inbox last Friday Longtime WatchTime readers are well aware that Oak & Oscar has represented the upper echelon of the American watch brand indie-sphere since the release of its first timepiece, the Burnham, in 2015 The two new watches, both limited to 25 total pieces, are only available to owners of the Burnham Date, 2016's Sanford GMT, or last year's Jackson Flyback Chronograph and any friends or collectors their base happen to invite.

It's a refreshing take on the traditional word-of-mouth approach and, over the past few days, it was not uncommon to see Oak & Oscar fans and owners posting links to the invite-only site in their Instagram bios Out of respect for the brand, we won't be linking to the site in this article but here's what you need to know about Batch Nº1 Based off of the Jackson Flyback Chronograph, the two manually-wound watches are available in either stainless steel or charcoal PVD.

Both of the models are 40 mm and feature the recognizable stacked register at 3 o'clock for tracking minutes and hours and small seconds at 9 o'clock Other than the new "Panda" dial layout, the overall color scheme is classic Oak & Oscar Like previous Oak & Oscar releases, Batch Nº1 is shipped inside a modular Horween Leather wallet that can hold up to three watches and was designed in-house by Fancher and his creative director John Hatherly before being produced by Woodnsteel in Indiana.
