Nixon Newton Digital Watch - Men's

I have this watch, as well as the Newton. They're both great watches. One cool feature of the digital is that you can actually play Pong by pushing the keys in a secret order. (The right side buttons, up, down, up, down, up, up, down, down) Have fun.

i first reviewed this on 7/24/11. after over a year of daily use, it's finally coming apart.
about a month a go, the little strap that holds the slack band in place got a tiny tear in it. i buckle my watch to the tightest notch so i had a feeling this would be the first part to break. it is still functional even with this tear.
just yesterday, the watch face started separating from the silicone band, also on the side that gets pulled when tightened (the "top" of the square). in this state, i'm worried the watch will fall off my arm if the last bit of silicone tears. i really love the nixon newton and will buy a replacement. in the mean time, i've "glued" the watch face back to the silicone with a low viscosity resin... probably not recommended by the manufacturer but it's the only thing that i could think of that would hold it in place. the watch is not damaged and the silicone tears are from every day use so i don't believe it's covered by any warranty; which is why i decided to repair it myself.
i think i got my money worth from this watch and will definitely buy it again.

ever wonder what the "Game Over" on the back means? you can play pong on it!!

got the all white, looks really stylish and fits great even though it's a men's watch [and i'm a gal]. it has a light! and can display military time. love the big numbers and the strap can be secured down. doesn't seem to have an alarm function or stopwatch but can't have it all, right? this watch looks really good... i am tempted to get another color!

First impression of the watch:

1) It is really actually quite bright.
2) It has a backlight button, so you can see it in the dark!
3) It can get dusty due to the silicon band, but it is easily brushed off the smooth surface.
4) The watch band has a bevel in it so that the band excess band never comes unlatched.

I would recommend this watch to anyone into style, and simplicity!

so you can totally play pong on this watch, just use the right buttons and go
up, down,up,down,up,up,down,down, and use the bottom 2 buttons to play... soooo sick !!!!

although this watch is really comfortable and super easy to read and really good looking it is kind of weak, the other day it just decided to snap off of the strap so either i get a new one since it isnt under warranty or i live without my beautiful watch

had it now for over a year and I love it - it is waterproof in that I wear it in the shower everyday and it's never been a problem. get lotso compliments on it - I have the black and it reminds me of the monolith in 2001. so future and yet so retro. agreed that there are really zero added features but all I want is my watch to tell me the time and day - got my Mac products for everything else...

$100 - time, date, pong.
NOT waterproof - splash proof?
NO alarm
NO timer
Casio & Timex can do all this for $30
Looks cool, but weak on features.

I bought this watch for my brother as a gift and when I got it I liked it so much and almost kept it for myself and gave him some hand-me-down jeans. Gunship is an excellent color.
