Summer Watches: Time To Add Some Color

Now that summer is here you are probably dusting off the shorts and tank tops

. Summer attire is less formal because summer is such a carefree time. Warm weather attire is also much more colorful. Even around the office I am sure you have noticed more color creeping into peoples wardrobes. It is not just shirts and shoes that are getting hit with a splash of color this season, fans of fine watches are also wearing more colorful pieces. Let's review some of the most tasteful color watches available right now.

Gucci has a lot of great watches this summer that have color but also maintain the tastefulness of the Gucci brand. For women I would suggest Gucci's 104 stainless steel women's fashion watch with silver dial. This Gucci watch has a beautiful turquoise leather strap with an alligator pattern. It's not too bright or intense so you can wear it out at night or during the day. The face is stainless steel and has a steel stud above and below it. This really looks like a one of those popular leather strap bracelets only with a watch and of much higher quality. The strap is also relatively slender so it doesn't look like an overwhelming leather cuff.

Another Gucci watch I like for summer is the Gucci Signoria 116 PVD women's watch. This is another example of a very jewelry inspired watch. The strap is an onyx black chain that is light and dainty, making it perfect for summer. The square face is a beautiful deep-green malachite with small white dials and number indicators. This watch lets the materials speak for themselves and they speak in an assertive yet modest fashion.

For men this summer I like the Welder by U-Boat K23 Ion-Plated SS watch. This watch is great for the outdoorsmen because it features glow in the dark numbers, a compass and a date aperture. Unlike other watches marketed for the outdoor crowd this Welder watch feels at home in the club or bar too. It has a modern chic that is equal parts rock and roll and tech nerd.

The Swiss Army Convoy Stainless Steel men's watch with rubber strap is just one example of a fun summer Swiss Army watch. It has a bold yellow face with bold, sophisticated Arabic numerals. Since it's a Swiss army watch you know it can stand up to all your summer activities like hunting, sports, and swimming.
