Although the weather in northern Europe is still in denial, the summer is really knocking on our doors. In a few weeks time many of us will enjoy holidays which usually take place in sunny, beachy environments.
The returning challenge for us watch geeks is of course to choose the ultimate summer watch to wear. Finding one is of course matter of taste and budget, and criteria might differ from person to person. However, my personal assumption would be that a great summer watch should be fun, colourful, waterproof and not (overly) expensive. With those criteria in mind I picked 4 recently introduced watches that should be up for the job.
1) TAG Heuer Formula 1/Kith
Echoing the original 1986 piece, the recently launched TAG Heuer Formula 1/Kith comes in a good variety of colours and dial variations. All limited to 1350 pieces, the watches sparked the beginning of a hype when launched but that didn’t took off completely. Good for us, as the Kith is available for close to the retail price which is around $1500. 100% fun from one of the most established brands around.
