Nixon is quickly becoming one of my favorite watch makers and their Fall 2009 collection sees the introduction of the Chronicle (shown above), an analog watch with a modern yet classic look. The watch will sell for about $250-$300 which is a bit pricey for me, so I’m gonna go ahead and beg Nixon for a sample here.
Nixon, are you reading this? If you are so kind enough, I’d gladly accept a free sample of this Chronicle watch and wear it with pride. I’ll rep it, I’ll tell everyone about it (and all your other watches), and I’ll even take lots of photographs of me wearing it in all sorts of places!!!

I got an email this morning from ASOS saying that they were now carrying the Casio W86-1V watch with the infamous Illuminator technology. This exact model was my very first watch when I was a kid and I fondly remember it lasting a very long time and holding up to lots of use. In fact, I still have this very same watch in my closet and I’m tempted to get it out and replace the battery in order to bring life to it again. Unfortunately, this hot item is already sold out at ASOS, but you can pick it up for cheaper at Amazon.com
(price: $12.95).

Casio and Goodenough have “collaborated” on a version of the classic GW-M5600 G-Shock and it’s not really anything that spectacular. In fact, it’s pretty darn ordinary.
If this is what this industry calls collaboration, then I’m going to go ahead and slap Doobybrain stickers on everything and call the city mine. Because well, that’s what Goodenough did here essentially.
