A keepsake at its core, a good watch is possibly the most versatile accessory you can own.

Just ask these four College Fashionista community members. While each of these student’s personal style is unique, they all know that a statement watch, like these select styles from Nixon (just a few of many offered by the brand), is the true secret to their best street style looks yet. See how these Style Gurus make this timeless accessory their own, and then tell us in the comments which style is your favorite.

the extra

Go full on glam by keeping a sticking to a party-ready color palette of gold and black. Abby Mason, LIM College, Class of 2021, let her Nixon Arrow ($200) do the talking by keeping the rest of her look all noir right down to her nail polish.
