NIL Store & AXIA Time Commemorate Historic Career of Zach Edey with Limited Edition Watch
May 9, 2024
Purdue’s back-to-back Naismith Player of the Year Zach Edey has certainly earned his fair share of hardware during his college career. Now through a unique collaboration between the Purdue NIL Store and AXIA Time, Boilermaker fans can take home their own piece of Edey history.

The limited-edition (only 150!) Zach Edey Purdue Naismith Timepiece by AXIA Time is on sale now at the Purdue NIL Store.

It's a fitting tribute to arguably Purdue's greatest player of all time. 

The collector’s item focuses on the logos and colors of Purdue and Naismith with additional details that make it extra special for the Boilermaker faithful: A chapter ring that reads “15 BACK TO BACK” around the hour marks, the Naismith player icon embossed on the dial and crown, and the Purdue P on the steel bracelet buckle.

This Swiss made automatic (self-winding) timepiece features a 43.5mm brushed stainless-steel case with a screw-down crown. 

This exclusive Timepiece comes in a wood display box signed by Edey himself with an engraving plate for extra personalization.

"Each aspect of the watch represents all who helped me on my journey: teammates, coaches, family, friends and fans," Edey said. "None of the success we had could have been possible without them."

One of the all-time greats in college basketball, Edey swept EVERY major National Player of the Year awards for the second straight season, becoming the first player since UCLA's Bill Walton (1972, 1973) to do so. His 12 major Player of the Year honors combined are the second most in NCAA history behind Houston’s Ralph Sampson (14).

Edey is the highest-earning athlete in this history of the NIL Store, and has a featured showcase of items available here.
