This watch is a Tank
I never write reviews, and while I had a good feeling about this watch based on the other reviews at time of purchase, I wanted to wait a bit to write my own review.Well then 2020 happened and I’m writing this review 4 years later.This watch is amazing and has held up to daily wear for four years - worn while wrenching on bikes and reaching up under Jeeps, worn during every workout and mountain bike ride. Very solid and has taken some hard hits. I’ve had Casios and Timex watches explode apart at the band from less action. This watch is a Tank. While I’m not keen to try, it feels like it could stop a bullet.The pic I took to show the scratches and wear, I tried to get the most direct sunlight and then used a high contrast filter to make the scratches show the most. Honestly in normal light and normal use the scratches on the glass are barely noticeable to me, and the wear on the bezel looks more like patina.The original battery is going strong (I assume in part to the low output of the display). The wristband doesn’t stink or collect much grime, but ever few showers I make sure to get under there with soapy water and scrub.I have had the end of the wrist strap pop out of the “ring” a few times, but because of the design of the buckle, and the thickness of the strap, the strap never came out completely. I know on other sports watches I’ve had a watch fly off or even get lost when this happens.In conclusion, the Nixon is subtle/classy enough to wear at an office job, but tanky enough you can wear it for sports, or even physical labor/wrenching on vehicles.I don’t want a new watch that will break every year; I want One Watch to Rule Them All - and the Nixion delivers.

Nixon Regulus is great
UPDATEI recently bought my third, and I've noticed the 2nd the 3rd have come "on" with California time set. They are supposed to come off with a sticker from nixon saying how to turn on....back and screen stickers missing. Im.thinking it's a return and being resold... I guess it's OK, but if it's being sold as new, the seller should know it's new... not a return with no idea how long the battery has been draining.... still like the watch.This is my second Nixon Regulus. I really like the fit and feel. This one is the green on green, and I really like the color. My other one is grwy with a negative (dark) display. The green is still slightly subdued but easier to read the display at any light. The photo shows the watch without the illumination on, just sitting in the living room. I highly recommend the Regulus and will end up getting another one!

The best..
This is my second Regulus. My first lasted three years before the band let go, the thing was very heavy and nearly indestructible. ,and I would still be wearing it if the pin hadn’t come out. Anyway, while searching for a band, I found this beauty. I noticed the silicone/rubber band (my first had the black stainless steel band (so heavy! So, ithis is the same watch with a much lighter band. I am sooooo happy with this watch! If you’re really tough on watches, THIS is the one to get. The settings are simple, and it keeps perfect time. The crystal is highly scratch resistant. I’ll probably stick with the Nixon from here out. Oh! And the backlight is adjustable and a have-to-have feature for me. Five stars, indeed.

Doesn’t appear to be new
Overall the watch looks fine but the box that it came in was already opened (seal wasn’t sealed) and the box came with scuffs as well as the cardboard pieces came off without prying, just fell off.

The end-all-be-all for daily use watches.
This watch has survived hundreds of showers, dozens of pool days, extensive and almost abusive forms of wear and tear, yet this thing still functions as fine as the day I got it. I have taken it off for an accumulative 4 weeks since I bought it 10 months ago and has seen dust, mud, rain, snow, seawater, and a thousand knocks into my surroundings as my forearm hits something.No scratch on the glass.Minimal paint wear.All buttons work.Beeping is high-pitched and annoying; perfect to wake up to and it doesn't travel into enemy territory.No worn screws or pins over these 10 months; I did not need to replace anything since nothing has broke.Minimal wear on the wrist strap.Wrist strap is still comfortable. I don't feel my watch unless I'm thinking about feeling it.3 alarms2 stopwatches1 timer (able to be used at one time; multiple presets + customizable and changeable timer)This is much better than I had bargained for.It doesn't stand out as a $150 watch by looks alone, but people who just touch it and feel the aluminum (or whatever metal it is) frame can suddenly believe that its price tag is real.This watch has saved me money and time, because cheap $20 watches break in a month, and I get off-schedule while I'm waiting on the replacement.I am very glad I that I made the risk to purchase this.Let me assure you: this is the only watch you will ever need.It will survive everything short of deliberate and intentional attacks with tools like hammers in an attempt to destroy it.(and even then, something tells me it would still keep ticking...)

Very cool watch
Awesome watch, I didn't expect it would be that cool. Simple to set up and operate. Definitely can compete with G-Shocks. Too bad you cannot start both chronographs the same time. Nightlight is super bright, brighter than any Casio watch I have.
