A popular Nixon watch gets a solar-powered upgrade

The newest addition to the Nixon watch family has a sunny side-effect you'll love

No matter how fancy the watch is, when it comes time to replace the battery, we all act like it’s easier to buy a new watch than to change the battery. The hassle of taking it to a jeweler is daunting and trying to swap it out yourself isn’t going to happen. Nixon knows this, and took a classic staple and gave it a feature that won’t leave you frustrated. Here’s why you should get excited about the Nixon Time Teller Solar collection.

The upgrades to look out for

Solar panels, solar lights, and now you can add this Nixon watch to the collection of your favorite things that run on the sun. They gave the Time Teller a few new features.

  • Updated clasp

Everyone gets upset trying to put a watch on (especially when in a hurry) and the thing just won’t clasp shut. Nixon made the clasp easier for everyone, where you won’t need additional tools (or an extra person) to get the watch on or to make any adjustments to customize it for your wrist.

  • Made the case larger, but in a good way

This thinner version sits a bit wider for a more comfortable wear, giving it a sleeker look.

  • Of course, the solar aspect was added

The best part is the solar panel is discreetly hidden in the dial. One charge up will get you four months of precision time-telling, so even the laziest of us could keep this watch running smoothly — as long as we give it a little light.

But the Nixon Time Teller has all the other details you want, like the Japanese Quartz movement, stainless steel details, raised indices on the dial, and that 100 meter/10 ATM water-resistant rating.

The colors

  • All gold with black accents
  • All black with white accents
  • Silver with a Jade sunray

The price is right

All of the watches Buy at Nixon , which is a great deal for all of the upgrades, especially knowing you won’t have to worry about that battery life. For how long the watch will last, the value for the quality is a no-brainer.

Hollywood loves the brand

Nixon has been styling celebrities and characters in movies, too.

  • Justin Bieber wore a white Nixon The Newton at the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards back in 2010.
  • Linda Hamilton sported a Nixon Regulus in Terminator: Dark Fate.
  • A Nixon Ragnar was on Thomas Cocquerel’s wrist in The Divorce Party.
  • Ryan Reynolds was on the case with a Nixon Siren watch in Detective Pikachu.
  • In The Way, Way Back, Sam Rockwell’s character Owen showcased a Nixon The Fader.

For a company that launched its first watch only as far back as 1998, they’ve come a long way from being the go-to Dad watch of choice. The Nixon Time Teller is a piece that exudes minimalistic luxury while making a darn good piece of wrist candy.

Dress like an iconic interior designer with J.McLaughlin’s new collaboration
Face, Happy, Head

Fashion designers litter the horizon across the menswear space. Each one brings a different vision to the landscape of men’s clothing. Some are basic and simple, leaning heavily on solid colors, classic pieces, and expert tailoring. Others preach to their customer base that expressing yourself through your clothing is easiest with bright colors, bold patterns, and silhouettes that stand out among the sea of classic run-of-the-mill garments. J.McLaughlin is one of the best at finding that middle ground and providing pieces for both the former and the latter. In their new collection, they teamed up with iconic interior designer Mark Sikes for a fresh take on menswear seen nowhere else in the industry. After designing Jill Biden’s White House spaces and heading across the street to transform Blair House (sometimes called the White House Guest House), Sikes brings looks to the forefront at J.McLaughlin you can’t miss.

The path of least resistance is crowded: 5.11 launches ‘I am 5.11’
Clothing, Coat, Wood

The world is a harsh place. Every day can feel like outside your door is a constant battle to keep your head above water. You can push and push and push, and at the end of the day, feel like you have lost ground. So why would anyone wake up and take the hard road? The truth is, those people have figured out the secret no one tells you. The undeniable truth that you only discover when you reach out and try to touch something everyone else tells you is impossible: That harsh world, it is neutral. It isn’t out to get you. It is waiting for you to decide the obstacles won’t stop you. The desire to leap over the obstacles and capture your dreams comes down, not to fortune and manipulation, but to effort. At least, that is what 5.11’s new campaign, “I am 5.11,” is pushing with the help of motocross professional Carey Hart and NASCAR driver Hailie Deegan. A collection of clothes built for hard work and no boundaries.

It’s about moving forward, pushing yourself forward, and always challenging yourself. – Carey Hart
