Ever since winning the Lacrosse Ivy League Championship in 1988, founder John Kanaras searched high and low for a high-quality watch with a design that matched the significance of his achievements. In 2018, he built his vision, just in time for his alma mater team to win again.

Slide the bar to see the watch our Founder received in 1988, and the one he designed for the 2019 Penn Lacrosse team.

The Argos is not only durable, it's also artfully designed to highlight elements unique to members of the NGA community. From the etched topo map on the dial, to the compass rose emblem on the crown and rotor, and the NGA motto engraved in the rehaut (“Know the World, Show the Way…from Seabed to Space.”), the Argos allows for a journey of exploration to find the many meaningful symbols of the men and women who help preserve our freedom and keep us safe.

Available in a 42 MM case diameter, it comes with 2 straps and complimentary custom engraving (during pre-order period).

AXIA Timepieces are designed in the US and hand-built by the same engineers who assemble other luxury Swiss watch brands in the legendary Alps town of Alle, where watchmakers have honed their craft for generations. AXIA Timepieces are also powered by the same movements as many of those brands. Premium watches without the premium price.

National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) - Argos

The Argos, like all AXIA Timepieces, is built using premium components. From our designs and the components we use, to the customer service we deliver, our goal is to exceed expectations in everything we do. AXIA means value/worth in Greek and is at the heart of our ethos. Every Timepiece is built to last. In fact, just like the Parthenon outlasted the ancient Greeks, your AXIA Timepiece will probably outlast you.
