Nope! All of our Solar watches charge in any light, including artificial office light. Keep in mind that your watch will charge faster in direct sunlight, but you'll generate enough power from artificial light to keep your watch ticking all day... and beyond.

Nixon Solar Watch FAQs
Do Nixon Solar watches only charge in sunlight?
How much light do Nixon Solar watches need for a full charge?
You won't need much light exposure to keep your Solar watch working for days and days. Just a few minutes of direct sunlight (or an hour under office light) is enough to power your watch for 24 hours.
How long do these Solar watches work on a single full charge?
A single full charge is enough to power your watch for months. You can expect about 4-6 months of power when you've reached a full charge.
Are these Nixon watches water resistant?
Yup! All of our Solar watches featured here are water resistant up to 100 meters.
