Nautica watches reflect the style and strength that has defined the brand since 1983. Founded by David Chu, the nautica-sailingcompany started out with a small line of men’s sailing jackets. Despite these small beginnings, Nautica quickly gained popularity and added more items to its increasingly impressive catalogue. The company was bought by the VF Corporation in 2003, but that did nothing to change the company’s dedication to cutting-edge craftsmanship.

Even the brand name itself speaks to Nautica’s purposeful design goals. Derived from the Latin word “Nauticus,” which translates to ship, Nautica’s apparel and accessories strive to capture the feeling of excitement and adventure that has always been associated with the sea, only with a modern day and land-friendly flair. To recreate this sensation, Nautica apparel is made to take individuals to the brink of their very own adventures, whether it be in the great outdoors, the open sea, or the corporate landscape.

It was not until 1994 that Nautica introduced watches to its arsenal of fashion designs. Since their inception, Nautica watches have been designed to be both fashionable and functional, with a particular focus on classically attractive sportswear watches. The majority of watches from Nautica are geared toward men, featuring large faces, usually with multiple sub-dials to provide extra information.
