Fans are invited to come to the Ohio State team store on North High Street on Friday, August 29, between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m., where they can take photos with the famous bronze statue and peruse AXIA TIME's exquisite watches commemorating the Buckeyes' 2024 playoff victory.

In addition, playoff MVP Will Howard – last seen leading the Bucks to a thrilling title-game victory over Notre Dame – will be on hand to meet and greet fans between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m.

Then, on the morning of Saturday, August 30, the Heisman will join AXIA TIME at the Ohio State Fan Fest located outside of the Ice Rink and St. John's Arena in Remembrance Park. The trophy will be stationed inside the AXIA TIME kiosk starting at 9 a.m. and fans are encouraged to stop by to take photos with the historic statue won by seven Buckeyes.

Finally, at halftime of the big game, Buckeye great Archie Griffin will be honored by the Heisman Trophy Trust on the 50th anniversary of his historic second Heisman triumph.

*Note: The Heisman Trophy is also available for scheduled media appearances outside of these planned events. Contact John Kanaras via email at [email protected] or Chris Huston at [email protected] for more information*

AXIA Time created three special edition watches to commemorate Ohio State's 2024 title: the Argos, the Lythos, and the Diasimos designs. In addition, AXIA Time partnered with Coach Ryan Day to create the limited edition autographed box set - signed by Ryan Day and limited to 300 pieces. All watches come with a vial of confetti from the post-game celebration, along with a certificate of authenticity.

AXIA Time, established in 2018, creates custom Swiss Made automatic timepieces that commemorate life's greatest achievements. AXIA Time was born out of founder John Kanaras' love of horology and his alma mater. After helping to lead the 1988 Penn Quakers to two Lacrosse Ivy League Championships in two years, the university gifted each player a championship watch. For John, the watch held great sentimental value but didn't measure up to the significance of the memories they represent. For 30 years he looked for a watch of quality and design that would meet that moment. When he couldn't find what he was looking for, he built it himself.

AXIA (ahk-SEE-ah) means "value" or "worth" in Greek. From the designs and high quality of AXIA Time components to an outstanding purchase experience for customers, the heart of the company's mission is to create value for everyone it touches.
