Watch It! - Nixon Ultratide Smart Surf Watch

Nixon is stepping up once again creating a smart watch for the wave chasing soul.  Their new Ultratide smart watch is connected to Surfline's renowned global network to provide up to the minute surf conditions via bluetooth, rather then the predicted data of past surf watches.  Tide, time, wave height, wind direction and speed, swell direction, and water and air temperatures, will all be at your fingertips in real time.  Check out more in this video with Rob Machado, and check out the watch at www.nixon.com.

Watch It People! September 16, 2013

The Nixon Time Teller is a stripped down watch for the guy on the go.  This bare bones watch is the antithesis of the usual Nixon fare, with a stripped down exterior perfect for the guy that doesn't want to look like he's trying to compensate for something.  Throw some colour in there by grabbing one of their nylon striped bands, like this red and navy one, and you'll see some comments come your way, and not just the question of "how heavy is that watch?" http://ca.nixon.com/mens/watches/the-time-teller-A045.html?sku=A0451388-00
