It's nearly that time of year... looking for a summer watch!

Recommended Posts

A post that's been covered a few times, but never seen a suggestion that tickles my fancy.

 

I've been Umming and ahhing about my next purchase, as summer is approaching I fancy a "summer watch" clearly won't be going diving with it but just want something that is easy to wear in summer, rubber strap maybe..

 

I've been thinking something along these lines:

Also considering an aquanaut and even an RM on a nylon strap.

 

Would like to see your "summer watches" for some inspo!

I've just bought a Summer Seiko 5, ready to be ruined with Sun, sea and sand.

Some of the new APs! The white ceramic Ap is a bad choice my friend, the case is no where near accurate!

Yeah I know the ceramic isn't close to gen, but I'm 1000% sure I'll never bump in to the gen! I'm feeling the bluesy on a blue perlon!

I think you hit the nail on the head with your first picture to be fair, superb choice for a versatile summer watch, works on the beach, works by the pool, works for a casual meal out, works for a classy meal out, works when running around with no clothes on slappin' ya wang from thigh to thigh... see, totally versatile!

Great plan but man is it hard to buy a decent Perlon these days.

You do crack me up, but I do agree, it is so versatile it's untrue. I've wanted an Off shore for a long time but never found one that's pushed me buy one!

Thanks mate. The white strap totally transforms it into a fantatsic summer watch.

 

Have to say my new blue and yellow Diver chrono makes a nice summer watch too.

I'm off to Ali, to order one! Any links?

 

I have to inform you;

You snapped that Blue Diver Chrono between my fingers!

 

Awesome summer watch!

 

If you ever want to pass it on, I call dibs :suck: :giggle:

 

Cheers!

Sorry, I got mine from Toro. Was looking on Ali and DH Gate for something else, but couldn't find anything for 44mm ROO's.

 

I'm loving the chrono Diver, it's not been off my wrist since I got it last week. If I deceive to part with it I'll let you know ;)
