Nixon Light-Wave FAQs

Is the Light-Wave waterproof, and what is its water resistance rating?
The Light-Wave is not fully waterproof but it has a water resistance rating of 100 meters / 10 ATM. This is good for water sports like surfing and swimming.
What eco-friendly materials are used in the Light-Wave, and how does it help reduce ocean plastic?
The Nixon Light-Wave watch uses eco-friendly materials like #tide recycled ocean plastic for its case and band, which helps reduce ocean plastic by removing it from the environment and reusing it in the watch's construction. Additionally, the watch features an Epson solar-powered quartz movement that reduces the need for disposable batteries, further contributing to its eco-friendly profile.
How does the solar-powered movement work in the Light-Wave, and will I ever need to replace the battery?
The Light-Wave’s solar-powered movement works by using a solar cell to convert light into electricity, which charges a rechargeable battery that powers the watch—reducing the need for disposable batteries. Since the battery is rechargeable, it lasts much longer than traditional batteries.
What are the size and design features of the Light-Wave, including case diameter and strap options?
The Nixon Light-Wave watch features a 36mm case diameter made from recycled ocean plastic, with a stainless steel caseback. It includes a 20mm custom recycled ocean plastic woven strap. The dial showcases a semi-transparent dial and a unique design that highlights the solar panel within the watch face.
Is the strap interchangeable, and how easy is it to change or adjust?
The 20mm watch strap of the Light-Wave is interchangeable. But it is a spring bar connection which means you will need special tools to make the change.
