ELITE CLASS WATCHES

How do I register and service my Nixon Automatic watch?

Please visit the Elite Class page on our website for detailed information on registering and servicing your Nixon Elite Class watch.


Why should I register my Nixon Automatic watch?

All Elite Class have a limited life time warranty and each watch has a serial number stamped on the back. By registering your watch, you validate the start of your warranty period and tie the serial number to you as the owner.


How accurate can I expect my Automatic watch to be?

Since Elite Class watches are hand made with hundreds of moving mechanical parts, they are typically less accurate than a quartz movement. Each watch movement is slightly different and will therefore have a different accuracy level. The tolerance specifications for the Automatic range from +40 to -10 seconds a day (Or +20 minutes to -5 minutes per month). Automatic movements can be adjusted by Nixon or a professional watch technician if the watch gets out of these tolerances. Remember to track all service on your watch to maintain your lifetime warranty.
