NEWS RELEASE
LEXINGTON, S.C., June 25, 2019 — Fish in style this summer with Hook + Gaff’s new King Tide Watch. Founded out of necessity, Hook + Gaff Watch Company will showcase its new timepiece allowing ICAST attendees to get a first hand look at this performance driven accessory. Its classic analog design, paired with extreme performance, allows the wearer to set the precise local tide giving extreme accuracy and elevated results out on the water.
“There is a shift back to analog tide watches; most digital tide watches have specific preprogrammed locations but the tides in those neighboring areas can be drastically different and more dramatic, so your tide watch won’t always be accurate,” said Michael Sims, founder of Hook + Gaff Watch Company. “Our analog tide watch is awesome because it provides precision and accuracy to set the local tide anywhere on earth.”
The King Tide watch’s analog tide indicator boasts all of the necessary features needed to support you while out on the water. Unlike other outdoor watches where the digital technology will soon be outdated or style is too bulky, Hook + Gaff watches are designed with a classic and timeless style that you can wear at any occasion.
