Watches

Watches built for the water and the everyday, led by Nixon and Casio G-Shock, two names surfers and skaters have trusted for decades. This collection keeps it simple: durable, splash-ready timepieces that look as good on the boardwalk as they do in the lineup. Our shops have carried Nixon since it became the surf-shop standard.

The Nixon lineup runs deep here, including The Time Teller in silicone, nylon and leather bands, The Sentry SS, The Staple, The Ripley, The Corporal SS, the 51-30 Chrono and the high-water-rated High Tide. For maximum impact resistance, the Casio G-Shock GA100 and GA010 bring shock protection and bold analog-digital faces.

Which Nixon watch is best for surfing?

For time in the water, choose a model with a higher water-resistance rating like The High Tide. Many Nixon watches are splash and swim friendly, but always check the rating on the product page before diving or surfing.

Are G-Shock watches good for surfers and skaters?

Yes. The Casio G-Shock GA100 and GA010 are built around shock resistance and water resistance, which makes them a durable pick for active days on the board or in the surf.
