Watchmakers Citizen recently collaborated with nano・universe to produce a special collaborative timepiece. The contemporary styling of the watch includes trademark Eco-Drive technology and a radio controlled function. Eco-Drive technology involves the use of solar power while the radio controlled function offers the ability to synchronize time with radio signals. The watch is currently available for pre-order at nano・universe. The price is set at ¥40,950 (approximately $348 USD).
Watchmakers Nixon started off in 1997 as a small label which catered predominately to the skate and surf market. Slowly their influence has expanded and now encompasses a much broader demographic. A foray into the fashion market has yielded some interesting contemporary designs as seen here in their 2008 Spring Collection. Here’s a look at The Player, The Rotolog, The Spree and The Tribella. An interesting approach to many of the women designs, incorporating the watch face into a bracelet style band. Available starting February at Zozotown.
