Who Still Needs a Watch?
With the proliferation of cell phones and handheld devices equipped with satellite calibrated timekeeping mechanisms, the pragmatic uses for watches are dwindling. Moments without these contemporary gadgets are few and far between for most of us, however, some people still participate in activities where having a cell phone or PDA on hand isn’t practical. Take skateboarders for example.
The threat of crashing is always imminent, and keeping a cell phone or handheld in your pocket isn’t the wisest M.O. To that end, many boarders opt for a timepiece instead. Of course, most boarders conform to a particular style, and as such, many opt for Vestal or Nixon watches, both of which have a solid reputation in the industry.
Nixon Company Overview
The name “Nixon” usually invokes images of the US president holding his dual peace sign pose and memories of the dubious Watergate scandal. In some circles however, the name Nixon is synonymous with high quality, cutting edge clothing and accessories.
Despite only being around for a little over a decade, the company has already developed a stellar reputation.
Nixon boasts an impressive roster of extreme sport professionals, including Bob Burnquist, Tony Hawk, Travis Pastrana and Mos Def. Unlike their competitors, Nixon makes a concerted effort to work with their team of professionals to develop products that meet their customers’ unique needs. This attention to detail is evidenced through their painstakingly designed Nixon mens watches and other products.
