hi folks,

as the sun is coming out in some parts of the world a bit more often in the upcoming months than it used to show in the past month I personally searched my collection for some watches which may colour up some of my summer days a bit more than other watches I got in my collection...so I`d like to share some of them with you and will be happy to see which watches are your favorite summer watches...so please chime in!

first one I really love is my PAM 082 ...

a real beauty with a titanium case and a blue dial which turns from deep blue - almost black - to light blue with a sunburst effect...depends on how the light hits the dial ... love it!

the next one I´ll wear a bit more often in the next weeks is my Omega Ploprof...I have got all straps you need for any season...and my favorite option for summer is orange...a stunner (it´s a V2 by the way)

another watch I own which gets some more wrist time in the summer is the PAM 114...I mounted a nice green strap on it - it fits pretty well in my opinion but the white dial is the main thing ... a real stunner for the summer days, you can combine with a lot of colorful straps...

white, orange, blue...very nice colors for the summer but we should not forget yellow...so I really like the combination of black and yellow on my AP bumblebee....really a nice watch or better a stunning rep...except for the strap this watch is simply amazing...

and last - not least the Rolex Daytona with the white dial - a watch which is a real summer watch...simply amazing from every angle...a true classic...love it.

and I promise...i´ll take some pics in sunlight with each and every watch above on my wrist in the next weeks they all will look way better than on the pictures above but let me - or better the community here - know which are YOUR favorite summer watches, too....

thanks for joining in and for your interest!

Great pics. I usually bring my NATO and rubber straps out in the summer.

Great choices and beautiful pics. It´s often hard to decide between more colours or water-resistance, somehow I do favour white dials more in Summer too (but not always use them)

For resistance&resilience

Mini_egi because it´s so comfortable on the wrist

Blackbay, because it´s versatile and red

2008 Cousteau IWC because it´s got the right colours of yellow and blue:)

Thanks, You´re welcome. This is one of the old ones 47/48mm, from Supermirrors, I´d never have thought it, but it became my fav. PAM. Can´t say if it´s the 8 days on the sandwich dial, the 5 minutes solid click of the unilateral bezel or the flat caseback - but it´s all a solid toolwatch PAM should be:) (silent 23j automatic movement, excellent pr, needs a relume, rep is stainless).

Whoever came up with the term "summer watch" must have been bored or had too much or too little of the nebulous rays. [emoji12] In my area of the US, it is always summer and you never want for an excuse to show up in abbreviated clothing and show off your best accessories! [emoji1]

Keep the photos coming! [emoji106]

For me, this piece is Going to see a ton of wrist time this summer.

The MH will come out occasionally during the daytime.

And these two pieces will come out more often at night.
