Classy Minimalist Armless Watches

The Nixon Newton Watch Brings a Bare Yet Classic Aesthetic

— March 13, 2014 — Tech
The Nixon Newton watch brings a minimalist style to the watch owner that doesn't want all the flash and frills associated with modern timepieces. The watch has a square plastic frame and scratch resistant mineral for the covering.

Contrary to popular belief, watches don't always have to bling to be considered high quality. This watch is proof of that fact. The watch comes in a variety of colors, but the main ones are black and white. Both of these colors are very simple in the way they are displayed, and other than the center piece and the two dots that work as the hands, there is no color variation.

The watches design speaks for itself without need for showing off, making for a clean cut and stylish look without trying too hard.
