Features
A combination of design and specification features make Nite watches what they really are; reliable, durable and highly visible. Every detail is considered in the design and manufacturing process with each every last component performing a very specific function; from the clarity afforded by the GTLS illumination and sapphire crystal, to practical detailing like the simple, yet effective over-locking straps, all help to make Nite watch ownership compelling and rewarding.
Nite Watch features
- Unique design
- Design is an integral consideration as nite watches have to be tough and practical, yet stylish and highly specified.
- Quality materials and processes
- Beyond design, the materials, processes and suppliers are of the highest quality; this ensures a durable and compelling ownership proposition.
- Swiss made illumination (GTLS)
- All Nite watches feature a rare illumination technology called GTLS (Gaseous Tritium Light Source). This highly specialised technology was, until recently only ever used in advanced military hardware or pioneering safety equipment where a guaranteed light source was needed for safe operations in all hazardous environments and conditions. Electrons emitted from the tritium gas excite the phosphor coating inside each GTLS lamp to produce a continuous light that will typically last between 10 and 20 years.
- Solid (grade 316) stainless steel cases
- All Nite watches benefit from a solid, high quality stainless steel watch case and this provides the platform for the reliability and durability.
- Sapphire Crystal with triple anti-reflective coating
- There are three types of crystals, acrylic, mineral and sapphire, the most expensive and durable. Sapphire is approximately three 3 harder than mineral and 20 times harder than acrylic crystals. It also has a non-reflective coating that prevents glare.
- Swiss movement
- Swiss made movements are provided by Ronda, one of the world's leading watch component manufacturers.
- Water resistance to 200m
- Thanks to precision engineering and appropriate design and specifications, nite watches are water resistant to up to 200m.
- Screw-in crown, seals and back-plates for extra reliability
- The combination of screw-in crowns, seals and screw-down back plates, make nite watches water tight and highly reliable.
- Chronograph functionality
- Our premium models come with chronographs with a centre stop-second, add and split functions, pushers with perceptible click and easy handling for consumers.
- Uni-directional bezels for elapse timing
- The uni-directional rotating bezel moves assists owners in calculations for elapsed times, ideal for divers and other time-critical pursuits.
- Double locking buckles and bracelets with retaining loop
- Tough hard wearing rubber straps feature a double-toothed solid stainless steel buckle and 'over-locking loop' facility. The material is pliable and hard-wearing.
- Solid (grade 316) stainless steel bracelets
- Solid steel bracelets finished in complimentary black, gun metal and brushed steel are secured directly into the watch case for maximum strength and reliability. They are easily adjusted to suit any wrist size and bought separately.
- Long battery life (between 4 and 10 years)
- Lithium batteries provide up to ten years battery life in some models, although the average life is four years.
- Screw-in lug pins for strength, reliability and security
- Its a small point, but the method we use to attach the straps and bracelets to the watch case is crucial. Put simply, the system is totally reliable and far more aesthetically pleasing.
- Wide and varied accessory list
- Alternative colour and specified straps, bracelets, watch covers, strap extensions and additional bezels are available on most Nite watches.
- Private label customisation service
- We can provide larger organisations with a Private Labelling service that allows the back-plate to be engraved and the dial uniquely manufactured and designed with a logo or brand name. This can be achieved for relatively low volumes of watch orders.
- NATO approved
- Nite watches are recognised military quality products and have a NATO stock number.
