(Names and identity-revealing information have been redacted to protect the sanctity of the holiday surprise.)

Nixon Gifts For Sons & Daughters

The Nixon Ripper watch is a top pick for those who are looking for a gift for their daughter. The Ripper is a 36.5mm digital watch with a quick release silicone band. The digital LCD screen offers a few basic functions including time, day and date, alarm and stopwatch.

Someone in the Logistics department says that he's gifting this watch to his child because:

"She’s just learning to read both analog and digital time, so this will be perfect for her. She hasn’t quite memorized her parents’ phone numbers yet, so I’m hoping to create a customized caseback with that info."

The Ripper is currently available in 9 different colors.

Shop the Ripper

If you're shopping for a son this year, consider these two options: the Ripper described above in a color option like Orange / Camo, or the stainless steel analog Corporal in Chocolate / Dark Roast.

The Corporal is a 48mm watch that is water resistant to 100 meters. As an everyday watch, the rugged Corporal is a perfect fit.

The Corporal Stainless Steel is available in 10 different color options. But a Nixon employee on the Sales team says that she's going with the Chocolate / Dark Roast color above for its "rich and warm colors with classic styling".

Nixon Gifts for Siblings

One of the most gift-able watches in the entire Nixon collection is undoubtedly the Time Teller. The Time Teller is available in a wide diversity of materials, colors and sizes.

If you're looking for a gift for a sister, a member of the Marketing team recommends the Small Time Teller:

"The size is perfect for smaller wrists, wearing with jewelry, and you can get them wet without the plating rubbing off."

An employee in Customer Service also recommends the Time Teller. She says that watches in the Time Teller family make perfect gifts for anyone because:

  • The Time Teller looks great on men and women
  • It's available in medium or small if they have wrists on the smaller side
  • The Time Teller is available in a solar movement if they are all about sustainability (or too busy to be bothered with changing a battery every few years)

Like the Corporal above, many of the Nixon Time Teller watches can be engraved with a custom message.

Nixon Gifts for Husbands & Fathers

If you're holiday shopping for a husband or a father, we have a couple excellent gift ideas this season.

Another employee in Customer Service is gifting a man in her life the Stinger 44 in Silver / Blue / Black because:

"The colors are timeless and he has a very large collection of dead watches tucked away in a drawer. Since, its solar he can wear it as long as he likes!"

An employee in the building is gifting his dad the Regulus Stainless Steel and including a caseback engraving:

"He always wore a gold digital SS Casio calculator watch growing up and this is about as close as we get. He is suffering from dementia and I think the engraving will be very important so he understands where it’s from even as his memory deteriorates."

Nixon Gifts For Wives and Mothers

Shopping for a special woman in your life? We've got you covered.

Once again, the Nixon Time Teller makes an appearance in this list of holiday gift ideas from Nixon employees.

 

All Silver Nixon Time Teller

An employee from Sales is gifting a woman in his life not just one, but TWO, Nixon Time Tellers. He says he wants to "give her more options over her Apple watch!"

If you think your wife or mother might enjoy something other than a watch, how about a bag?

Nixon Desperado Duffle

A Nixon employee who works in the Warehouse says he's gifting the Desperado Duffle because "it's a very stylish heavy-duty bag compared to the rest of the duffels on the market."

Here are three other gift ideas from the Nixon lineup and why Nixon employees are gifting them this holiday season!

Nixon Siren Tortoise Watch

"She surfs daily and I know she would love the tortoise acetate."

 

Nixon Drifter 40 Watch

 

Drifter 40

"I love the size, the color, and the tons of LUME. The 'alarm' moving ring function is also really great to know when you might need to be somewhere 'in a few' in an analog watch."

Nixon 51-30 Chrono Watch

51-30 Chrono

"He graduates high school this year and I’d like him to have a nicer analog watch because he has only ever had digital... I think a fancier watch would be nice as he goes off to college. The chrono makes this twofold as he is a runner so having a chrono to use as a timer if he needs it is going to be very important to him."
