Just in time for the return of the METALLICA‘s “M72” North American tour, Nixon is proud to announce a second collaboration collection with Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame inductees METALLICA. This encore collection, which includes four watches, was born of long-shared mutual respect for upstarts who buck the system and wind up changing it for good.
Nixon x Metallica will be available as of February 13, both in stores and online at Metallica.com, Metallica.ProbityMerch.com (UK),and Nixon.com. The collection includes four hard-rocking models:
* Sentry Stainless Steel “Kill ‘Em All” $300

Sentry Stainless Steel “72 Seasons” $300
The second version of the Sentry in this collection features METALLICA‘s most recent album cover, “72 Seasons”, and its unmistakable yellow. It also features the Metallica Barb seconds hand and leather-textured dial.
