Before I had a Nixon "the producer" and kept it for about 8 years. During those years I never really saw a watch that made mine feel obsolete in terms of style even the high end watches. I knew what I wanted but couldn't find it. That was until I saw the 12 Gauge in a store in Cancun about a month ago. From that moment, my mind was set, the price just didn't matter. <br />I really like the fact that this watch is technical and esthetic at the same time. The case is really big and suit my wrist size perfectly. It's also pretty light for a watch of that size. The bracelet is just wide enough and meets the case in a great way. The brushed metal/matte black color combo makes the 12 Gauge stand out but not in a flashy way. The big buttons adds to the overall balance of the design. The watch come in a wood box with a beautyfull metal emblem on it. It's not really important but it just adds to the pleasure of buying the watch.
