Nixon's All-Time Best-Seller, Built to Go Anywhere
The Nixon Time Teller P is the watch that made Nixon a household name in action sports. Its uncluttered 40mm case reads cleanly at a glance and moves effortlessly from the water to the weekend without demanding attention. Unpretentious by design, versatile by nature.
40mm Polycarbonate Case Construction
The Time Teller P is built around a stainless steel core fully encased in custom injection-molded polycarbonate, keeping the case lightweight without sacrificing rigidity. A fixed polycarbonate bezel frames a hardened mineral crystal, and a triple-gasket molded polycarbonate crown seals out water. The caseback is screw-down stainless steel set inside polycarbonate, with stainless steel spring-pin lugs connecting case to band.
The result is a watch that handles everyday bumps, splashes, and salt air with confidence, while staying light enough that you forget it's on your wrist.
Miyota Japanese Quartz Movement
Inside runs a Miyota Japanese quartz 3-hand movement, one of the most dependable calibers used in sport and lifestyle watches. The dial carries applied indices and custom molded hands for a finished, intentional look rather than the printed-on markers common at this price point. Timekeeping is accurate and easy to read even in bright sunlight.
100 Meter Water Resistance
Rated to 100 meters (10 ATM), the Time Teller P handles swimming, snorkeling, and everyday water exposure without hesitation. The triple-gasket crown and screw-down caseback are the key hardware behind this rating. This is a genuine water-activity watch, not merely splash-resistant.
20mm Polyurethane Band with Patented Locking Looper
The 20mm band is custom injection-molded polyurethane, soft enough for all-day wear and resilient against UV exposure, sweat, and saltwater. Nixon's patented locking looper keeps the tail end of the strap secured flat against the wrist instead of flapping loose, a small detail that makes a real difference in daily use. The polycarbonate buckle is lightweight and corrosion-resistant.
