Play TETRIS, Read Time

November 22, 07 by You Teck

Classic games seem to live forever and after a release of ‘The Pong’ watch, Nixon have delivered another that allows you to play Tetris.

In a lot of aspect, the whole concept does seems to be redundant considering that java games are widely available in mobile phones. However, classic games like Tetris are timeless and as redundant as it may be, I personally still like the retroness that is spread out by the watch. One more thing, the music of the game is really nostalgic.

Here’s an interesting fact: Did you realize that all advertisement watches are timed at 10:10?

I’m not much of a watch lover but for some reasons, there is something about the SENTRY that made me draw to it. I guess it might have something to do with its metallic outer case and the really sleek looking POLYURETHANE band.

Some additional info:
MOVEMENT
3 HAND JAPANESE QUARTZ WITH DAY AND DATE

CASE
CUSTOM 100 M STAINLESS STEEL WITH HARDENED MINERAL CRYSTAL AND DOUBLE GASKET CRWON

BAND
CUSTOM TEXTURED POLYURETHANE WITH PATENTED LOCKING LOOPER

Listed as the latest additional to the nixon family, there is no information on where to get the watch yet.
