Nixon - The Time Teller P - Yellow Patterned

I'm in yellow today, so wanted a watch to match. And I don't have many watches more yellow than today's watch.

The watch is by Nixon, which is an American watch company founded in 1998. They began with the aim to make watches to allow their customers to show off their personalities in an off-the-shelf piece.

This model is called The Time Teller P, and unlike many of the Nixon watches, is made of polycarbonate rather than metal. The watches came out in a range of colourful designs, and this version (yellow with grey oval patterns) is from the 2010 spring collection. The back also says the word minimal, and a number 9L, and says it is 100m water resistant.

The watch is a basic three hand dial set-up, and uses a Japanese Miyota quartz movement. The strap is made of polyurethane and includes the Locking Looper strap holder (US patent 6,830,156).

The line is still for sale from the Nixon website ($75), but this design is not available anymore. The user manual can also be downloaded from the Nixon site.
