TOUGH AS THE TIME IT HONORS

Inspired by the Dust Bowl of the 1930s and the homesteaders who weathered the storm, The Black Blizzard titanium wristwatch is an emblem of the American spirit, a willingness, and determination to overcome adversity. Features of The Black Blizzard include a sapphire crystal, Super-LumiNova printed dial details, sport 3 eye chrono, solid titanium case with brushed finish, turning top ring bezel and screw down crown. Each watch comes with a custom display box, titanium bracelet, black rubber strap and a coffee table book. The Black Blizzard is a salute to true American grit.

INTRODUCING

THE BLACK BLIZZARD

A SALUTE TO
TRUE AMERICAN GRIT

The 1930s were a time of perseverance for many Americans, and none more so than those who endured the Dust Bowl. The wheat bubble, weather, and farming techniques created a perfect storm of economic, migratory, and meteorological events that tested the strength of Americans across the Great Plains.

Our hair was gray
and we ground dust
between our teeth.

TOUGH AS THE TIME IT HONORS

In tribute to these hardened folks and the legacy of resilience they left behind, the titanium Black Blizzard Runwell Sport is crafted at every turn to endure. As strong as steel at nearly half the weight, the titanium case and bracelet are tough as they come. An included black rubber strap is expandable and breathable, tough enough for all the elements.

ROOTED IN HERITAGE

With the custom gift box and coffee table
-book, the Black Blizzard's story comes to life.

WE CONTINUE TO PRESS FORWARD WITH RESOLVE,
DRAWING INSPIRATION FROM A MOTTO OF THE TIME:

GRAB A ROOT AND GROWL.

MOVEMENT

THE ARGONITE 5050
IS KING OF MULTI-TASKING

The high-accuracy quartz movement in this Runwell Sport Chrono powers the calendar aperture, three sub dials and a powerful long- lasting battery.

CASE

TITANIUM TOUGH

A strong case for quality time. This solid titanium case epitomizes strength and features a classic pumpkin crown, a unidirectional bezel, and double- domed sapphire crystal. Sapphire is second only to the diamond in hardness—making it ideal for protecting your watch from scratches.

DIAL

QUIET STRENGTH

Black with a matte velvet finish, this dial gets a bold look from three sub dials, a stopwatch function, and Super-LumiNova details. Other attributes include applied Arabic numerals and a remote second hand sweep.

STRAP

SOLID TITANIUM BRACELET

Talk about a strong finish. This three-link bracelet is light, versatile, and made from brushed titanium. It is also removable, making the timepiece customizable with the included rubber strap.

PACKAGING

CUSTOM GIFT BOX

Each Black Blizzard comes with a custom box and a coffee table book.
