My friends and I were looking forward to the tradition our college had of celebrating the completion of the academic year – a dance and music festival with a party afterwards. Preparations were in full swing at the college. We were super excited – my friends had even decided on the outfits they would wear that day.
I had decided on my dress for the day as well – it was jeans and tee paired with a cool-looking jacket to match. Belt and shoes weren’t a problem but the wristwatch was. My usual watch, which I had been using for the past five years had suddenly given up on me – even a battery change failed to revive it. With just a few days to go for the event, I needed a new watch – that too in a hurry.
Online shopping seemed the quickest way to get myself a new watch in time for the college event. Several online watch stores offered a huge choice of timepieces from many different brands. One of the brands that stood out was Nixon. It is an American watch and accessories brand that targets young adults. Nixon makes fashion watches that are neatly designed and reasonably priced.
Nixon brand originally created watches to suit the sensibilities of surfers, snowboarders and skaters. Today the scene has widened, Nixon watches have become the choice of people even outside the sporting arena. One of the reasons for their popularity is their simplistic designs and sleek looks.
The City Watches website https://www.citywatches.in/shop/nixon/nixon-all-nixon/ has some really minimalistic design timepieces from Nixon. I liked the clean dial of the Nixon Porter A1058-1113-00 Analog Quartz Men’s Watch. The clean dial is easy to read, just what I was looking for. I simply needed a wrist watch to keep time and wasn’t looking for any other complications to clutter the dial.
Fashion watches like those from the Nixon brand are bought for their looks rather than their craftsmanship and Nixon watches don’t disappoint. Yet, I would like my fashion watch to last for at least a few years. Nixon watches don’t disappoint in this aspect as well. These are durable pieces crafted with quality materials. Most of the watches feature a quartz movement which, as we know is famed for accuracy.
Nixon Porter A1058-1113-00 Analog Quartz Men’s Watch comes in a round stainless-steel case enclosing a silver white dial. The simple stick-like design of the hour markers is also carried on to the hour and minute hands. The face is covered with mineral crystal. The overall simplistic look is completed with a brown leather strap. It looked all good and with a discount of almost 40% on listed price, I got it for Rs. 5,700/- from City Watches https://www.citywatches.in.
The watch arrived just in time for the D-day, exactly like the one shown in the picture.
