Ninja Vs Pirate - Nixon Player Watches

Nixon Rubber Player BlackNixon Player Gold

 

 

Unless you have been residing underneath a megalith somewhere, you have already seen some iteration of the Nixon Player or Rubber Player watches. The Player watch design is probably my favorite Nixon watch layout aside from the "alias" look of their Time Teller model. I was perusing the internets when the black Rubber Player caught my eye. Matte black is always subtle yet sick, and I always feel compelled to post about any item that makes use of materials that I may not normally wear, in ways that mimic tradition while still maintaining a certain uniqueness. Of course when I noticed that watch I naturally progressed to the original Player watch in gold, and I couldn't take my eye off of it. On one hand the black Rubber Player is smooth and stealthy. On the other hand gold pops as my metal of choice... I am so torn. It's like the classic ninja versus pirate scenario. Difference in price ignored, if you could have only one of these watches, which would you choose? [Via 80's Purple]
