Background: The concept of this product has been in the works for over three years. How can we showcase hockey history in a unique yet sophisticated manner? With this help of a watch craftsman we solved the puzzle on how to upcycle historic used hockey sticks into classic timepieces.
This limited edition watch is constructed using the iconic 1984 Canadien 6001 wood stick employed by famous NHLers and the public they inspired.
Why we chose this stick: For most of our sticks we chose a stick model to represent an iconic brand. This one is no different. The Canadien brand was founded in 1969 in Drummondville, Quebec by a number of investors, including former Montreal Canadien players such as Guy Lapointe and Yvon Cournoyer. The Canadien 6001 Itself was iconic known to be used by some historic greats such as Denis Savard, Cam Neely, Theo Fleury. The 6001 stick used for this watch emphasized the Quebecois roots with a "fibre de verre" coating.
Limited Edition: Only 25 of this design are available for purchase based on the available wood material in the stick.
