Nixon The Housing
$120.00
Released January, 2010
The Pros:Waterproof enough to not have to worry about rain or reaching below the surface of the water to retrieve something. Built durably enough to take a few hits without showing signs of wear. Band is very comfortable around the wrist and resists slipping without having to over-tighten it.
The Cons:A little hard to read in daylight. Design is a little blocky and boring looking.
The Nixon The Housing is a budget-friendly, high-tech men’s digital watch designed to offer real-time tide information for over 200 beaches worldwide.

Matt:
#nixon_the_housing My wife bought me this watch for my birthday. In less than a month between her buying it and giving it to me it seems the battery has gone flat. Not such a big deal but Nixon customer services are BY FAR THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICES I have ever come across!!! Despite registering the product when it was purchased (ie before the battery went flat) they will not allow me to return the watch for repair without giving them my credit card details first! This was AFTER weeks of waiting for a reply to my email. I am now stuck as I cannot get the battery changed locally without voiding the warranty.
