For its latest timepiece, Nixon turned to special operations personnel to craft something that functions in the harshest environments. The Regulus is a 46mm watch with a fiber reinforced polycarbonate case and a stainless steel bezel for durability. The protective housing lends to tough shock absorption and sturdiness, meaning this timepiece is built for damn near anything. An oversized display and customizable LED backlight make time, date, and other info easy to gather in quick fashion and in dark or underwater settings. Available in three colors that keep things from getting loud, the Regulus is a great option for anyone not looking to spend a fortune on a watch that will perform in difficult situations.
