Where Dress Watch Meets Real-World Toughness
The Nixon Sentry SS is an elegant timepiece that refuses to stay indoors. Its dial is layered with depth and detail that reads as polished and refined, while the solid stainless steel case and hardened mineral crystal give it the durability to handle wherever your day goes. Nixon calls this balance "dressy done their way" and the Sentry SS delivers it without compromise.
Solid Stainless Steel Construction
The case is solid stainless steel, not plated, not plastic-backed. The crystal is hardened mineral, chosen for scratch resistance and clarity across years of daily wear. The tapered, custom, solid stainless steel 3-link bracelet features a double-locking clasp and micro-adjust, so fit is precise and stays that way all day. This is not a watch that wiggles on your wrist or loosens over time.
Miyota Japanese Quartz Movement
Inside is a Miyota Japanese quartz 3-hand movement with bilingual day and date display in English and Spanish. The day/date window sits at 3 o'clock and a printed seconds track runs the inner dial. Miyota movements are known for reliability, accuracy, and ease of battery service, which is why Nixon specifies them across its serious everyday watches. When the battery runs out, a standard watchmaker replacement is all that is needed.
100 Meter Water Resistance
The Sentry SS carries a 100 meter (10 ATM) water resistance rating. That covers swimming, snorkeling, and surface water activity. It is built to survive accidental immersion, splashes, and the humidity that South Florida demands of any watch worn in or near the water.
Dial and Bracelet Detail
The face reads with dimensional detail: bar index markers, bold matching hands, and a clean printed seconds track that keeps the dial legible without cluttering it. The 3-link stainless bracelet tapers toward the case for a fitted, refined look that transitions from on-water activity to an evening out without requiring a strap change.
