Nike Triax Swift Wr0090

I'd always seen the Nike watches as one of the more interesting of the normal watches I'd seen in the shops. I think it was the off-centre strap design, the 30 degree rotation of the face, and the lack of symmetry that I found quite eyecatching.

The Triax watches were one of the ranges of watches released by the Nike sportswear company. Nike ventured into the watch business for a period, but seems to have stopped (as I can't find any on the Nike website).

This model is the Wr0090-022, and has a large digit LCD display with two lines, normally showing time, date and day. As this is a sports watch, it has timer and chronograph modes, as well dual alarms and a data mode (for recalling stopwatch data). It also has high water tolerance as it is 100m water resistant, and there is an el-backlight activated by the front button.

The back of the watch shows the model number, material (plastic and stainless steel), manufacturing location (China), and the patents that cover the watch (D394391, D394392, and D394394).
