Special birthday gift from my wife!

For a very long time i have had my eye on what Oak & Oscar has been bringing to the market. From their Jackson mechanical chronographs to their Humboldt GMTs, i knew at some point i wanted to get my hands on one. Their latest release of the Green Olmsted No date really caught mine and my wifes eye, so every time i would see one on insta, I would jokingly say to her, this watch is taunting me and i need to buy it 😂. Well, I wasnt the one who ended up buying it for myself, she got it for me for my 30th birthday! She emailed Chase at Oak & Oscar to let them know it was a birthday gift so, he was nice enough to send an extra strap as a little gift from them.

This was one of the nicests birthday gifts i have ever received and will never forget it! I also really appreciate the Oak & Oscar team for giving her one of the best customer service experiences shes ever had!

That’s one watch you’d better not sell.

It’s a lovey gift!

Chase and the O&O team are simply next level in this game. When I purchased my Humboldt GMT, I felt like an Owner before I even pulled the trigger on which one I wanted. I am so excited to get up to Chicago and meet the team in person sometime soon.

Their quality of product backed with the great customer support spells out a great recipe for success in my mind. I hope they go far. Since I saw the release of the Green Dial Olmsteads I've been lusting myself... the Humboldt may need a friend in the box soon haha cheers man! Congrats and happy belated!

The Humboldt gmt is a killer watch and I couldn’t recommend it enough! Hopefully I’ll be joining you with the green dial Olmstead sometime soon 🤙🏽
