Talking Watches With Curtis McDowald, U.S. Olympic Fencer

Fencing, for many Americans, is an exotic sport – so much so that if you mention it, you might very well get a blank stare. (I remember asking a clerk at a Montgomery Ward department store, in the 1970s, if they sold fencing equipment. I ended up in an aisle full of gear for building fences.) But McDowald and his team hope to change all that – and to establish American fencing as a force to be reckoned with, internationally.
