I must admit I prefer digital watches, but this time I’ll make an exception to present you The Newton by Nixon. This [retro watch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retrofuture-wrist-tech) is completely unique with its [colorful silicone face](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dsruptor-watch).

Avalaible in black, white and multicolor, this watch with an [LED light display](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dwn5600-nano-ring) is ideal to wear a modern look on your wrist.

**Implications** - Once, the classic silver or gold watch was something to be coveted; now, the crazier, the better. Appealing to consumers who want more than a simple time-teller, designers are creating flashy, colorful and funky watches that simultaneously offer fashion, function and the ability to catch anyone's eye.
