Silver Quartz Watch FAQs

Do Nixon silver quartz watches keep accurate time?

Our silver quartz watches use Japanese quartz movements powered by battery-operated quartz crystals that vibrate at a precise frequency. This technology makes them more accurate than mechanical watches, typically losing or gaining only a few seconds per month compared to several seconds per day with mechanical movements. Quartz watches require minimal maintenance, don't need winding, and provide consistent, reliable timekeeping without regular adjustments. This makes them perfect for everyday wear when you need dependable accuracy without the upkeep of automatic or mechanical watches.

What is the price range for Nixon silver quartz watches, and what determines the cost differences?

Our silver quartz watches range from approximately $150 to $575, depending on the model and features. Entry-level models like the Time Teller start around $150 and offer minimalist three-hand designs perfect for everyday wear. Mid-range options like the Sentry Stainless Steel are priced around $325 and feature larger cases, date complications, and premium finishing. High-end models like the 51-30 Chrono at $575 include chronograph functionality, oversized cases, and enhanced water resistance. Price differences reflect case size, complications (like chronographs or date displays), water resistance ratings, bracelet construction, and overall finishing quality.

Are Nixon silver quartz watches suitable for both men and women?

Yes! Most of our silver quartz watches are designed as unisex timepieces that work beautifully on any wrist. The Time Teller, for example, features a versatile 37mm case size that's perfect for smaller wrists while still looking substantial enough for larger wrists. The collection includes a wide range of case sizes from compact 37mm options to bold 51mm statement pieces, ensuring there's a perfect fit for everyone. The clean, minimalist silver aesthetic and variety of dial colors make these watches adaptable to any personal style, regardless of gender. 

How long do the batteries last in Nixon silver quartz watches, and are they expensive to replace?

Our quartz watch batteries typically last between 2-3 years with normal use, though this can vary depending on the specific model and features. Watches with additional complications like chronographs or backlighting may require more frequent battery changes. Battery replacement is relatively inexpensive, usually costing $10-20 at most watch shops or jewelry stores. We offer battery replacement services through our warranty and repair program. The long battery life and low replacement cost make quartz watches very economical to maintain compared to mechanical watches that require expensive servicing every few years. Simply replace the battery when the watch stops, and you're good to go for another few years.

Can I swim or shower with my Nixon silver quartz watch?

Yep! Most of our silver quartz watches feature 100 meter/10 ATM water resistance, which makes them suitable for swimming, showering, and water sports activities. This rating means you can confidently wear them in the pool, ocean, or shower without worrying about water damage. However, they're not designed for scuba diving or high-impact water activities like jet skiing. Models with higher water resistance ratings offer even more protection. The stainless steel cases and hardened mineral crystals provide additional durability and water protection. Always ensure the crown is pushed in completely before water exposure, and avoid operating pushers or crowns while the watch is wet to maintain the water-resistant seal.
