Nixon company history timeline

1997

Nixon was established in 1997 in Encinitas, California, US. The company makes watches and accessories and is also known as an audio brand.

Laats and DiNenna raised nearly US$1 million from venture capitalists to start Nixon and, in 1997, the debut catalog was released; seven models were released through 200 retailers.

1998

What’s more, there was a bit of luck to help lock in that early success: as they prepared for their inaugural launch into retail in 1998, one of the leading European watch brands selling in North America closed its doors.

2006

The collective efforts of the team led Nixon to one of the company’s most significant milestones, a sale to Australian surf company Billabong in 2006.
