We make no secret of the fact that we are infatuated with Nixon watches in much the same way we were with our first babysitter. The babysitter might have failed taking care of your wood and rubber needs, but Nixon doesn’t disappoint. In either regard. Having sated every adolescent fantasy we’ve ever had, Nixon set about making a watch for the grown-up society thinks we are. Enter Nixon’s “Elite” The Magnacon SS. The custom titanium carbide coated stainless steel 50mm case will make you feel like the big man on campus and the $750 price tag means even the community college guys can stomach it. If you want diversity, it comes in black, silver, and gunmetal. You won’t even need to wish for more hands to give this watch six thumbs up – it comes with them.
