Original Grain and Stone Brewing Unveil Unique Craft Beer-Inspired Watch Collection

Renowned watchmaker Original Grain has teamed up with Stone Brewing, a global leader in craft brewing, to introduce an exceptional watch collection inspired by Stone's iconic beers and distinctive branding. The Stone Brewing Watch Collection is now available for purchase at www.originalgrain.com, starting at $349.

“As a fellow San Diego company, we are honored to be working with Stone’s iconic brand to bring the same level of quality and consistency into our watch collection,” said Ryan Beltran, Co-founder of Original Grain. “By partnering to use Stone’s authentic reclaimed beer barrels, this collection is the epitome of sustainability in watchmaking.”

Symbolizing the epitome of quality beer, Stone's iconic Gargoyle serves as the inspiration for this collaboration, embodying the role of "Guardians of the Craft" in these exceptional timepieces, protecting against the lesser realms of cheap beer and unfavorable moments.

The flagship piece, The Gargoyle Chronograph 44mm, is meticulously crafted from oxidized steel and charred oak wood, mirroring the materials employed in Stone's brewing process. The West Coast Chronograph 44mm proudly carries Stone's pioneering West Coast IPA branding, embodying its legacy. The Amber Ale Barrel 46mm showcases the Gargoyle through Amber Tinted Sapphire Crystal, adding a unique touch. Lastly, the collection's boldest piece, the Limited-Edition Arrogant Bastard Automatic, is set to capture the hearts of devoted craft beer enthusiasts, with only 250 pieces available.

Original Grain's innovative use of reclaimed materials from Stone's brewing process underscores the narrative of groundbreaking craft brewing, encapsulated in these timepieces.

“The Stone Brewing Gargoyle has become symbolic of that go-your-own-way spirit that lives in so many of us, and it’s captured beautifully in these watches,” said Erin Smith, Stone Brewing Sr. VP of Marketing. “Of course, there’s only one way to wear these timepieces, and it’s with a Stone beer in hand.”

This partnership is set to intrigue craft beer aficionados and watch collectors, and promises to be a standout Christmas gift choice for 2023. For more details, visit originalgrain.com or follow the brand on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok.
