Nixon develops "the world's first smartwatch for action sports"!

NIXON, a lifestyle accessory brand from California, USA, announced in October 2016 that it will release THE MISSION, the world’s first action sports compatible smartwatch. *Sales schedule is subject to change.

Nixon finally introduces “the world’s first action-enabled smartwatch”!

THE MISSION (The Mission) is the world’s first action sports-ready smartwatch. While being a smartwatch, THE MISSION is water resistant to 100 meters and 10 atmospheres, something that has never been achieved before. It features the tough specifications and smart design required for action sports.

The materials used include a highly durable custom-molded polycarbonate case, an OLED display, Corning(R) Gorilla(R) crystal glass for superior durability and wear resistance, and a 316L-grade stainless steel bezel that reduces interference with the touchscreen. The new model also features the latest Qualcomm(R) technology, which is the most advanced in the industry. The newest Qualcomm(R) Snapdragon™ Wear 2100 system-on-chip (SoC) is built in for comfortable operation and extended use.

The design is based on cutting-edge technologies such as Google’s Android Wear™ and Qualcomm(R) Snapdragon™ high-performance chips, allowing the watch to be equipped with Android-compatible apps as well as custom apps suitable for action sports. The SUNWATCH is the world’s largest wave information provider. In cooperation with Surfline™, the world’s largest wave information provider, and Snocountry™, the world’s leading snow condition network, the watch is equipped with custom apps for each. With each custom app, you can check the weather conditions of your favorite surf spots and destinations in real time, anytime, anywhere. It’s truly “never-not-know”.

BUILT FOR SURF.

The design and functionality of this model is inspired by NIXON’s action sports DNA. It is something that no other smartwatch has ever done. It is water resistant to 100 meters / 10 atmospheres and provides instant real-time wave information provided by Surfline™. You will be able to experience its solid functionality on your wrist.

BUILT FOR SNOW.

THE MISSION is designed to withstand the harsh conditions of the great outdoors. This is no different in the snow environment. THE MISSION is a smartwatch that provides you with a wealth of information that can be adapted to any terrain, not just mountain conditions. Not only weather and terrain, but also an app developed in cooperation with Trace™ that allows you to record and track your sessions.
