When it comes to no nonsense, purpose-built gear, you won’t find more demanding users than U.S. Special Operations personnel. The Nixon Regulus watch was designed with input from current and former operators to have everything you need and nothing you don’t. Custom-built LCD module with water-resistant case and pushers. 5-year battery life. Dual chronographs. Shock-absorbent materials that withstand the most extreme conditions. Silent mode and adjustable LED backlight to keep things covert when necessary. Even better, the Regulus is available in 6 different colorways, so there’s a match for every type of mission.
