Guide Let’s Dive into Summer
Summertime starts here…
When you hit the beach this summer, instead of hiding your watch in the toe of your shoe (you thought no one knew, right?!), why not choose one of these rough and tough water-resistant timepieces that you can strap on and leave on, whatever you are doing.
Watchdreamer has a huge selection of super cool sports watches to choose from this summer whether you are sailing, diving, swimming, or just sunbathing on the beach, these timepieces will definitely up your summer style!
Breitling Superocean Heritage II
The new Breitling Superocean Heritage II is inspired by the original Superocean from the 1950s, with some nice vintage details such as the brand’s iconic triangular-shaped hands as well as its unidirectional bezel with a polished ceramic ring. With a water resistance of 200 meters and a COSC-certified movement, this is a modern diver’s watch that is both sporty and elegant. It comes with a black or blue dial and on a choice of a rubber strap or a mesh stainless steel bracelet.
Bvlgari Aluminium 40
With its bold and unique design, Bvlgari’s new Aluminium 40 chronograph will certainly get you noticed on the beach this summer. First launched in 1998, the brand recently reinterpreted this luxury sports watch model in a totally modern and refreshing way. The timepiece comes in aluminum and titanium, making it both light and tough on the wrist. It also comes with this fabulous black and light gray dial and a black rubber strap and is water-resistant to 100 meters.
Frederique Constant Yacht Timer Regatta
For lovers of yachting and regattas, the Frederique Constant Yacht Timer Regatta features a unique complication that allows the wearer to countdown to the start of a race. At the top of the dial, each dot represents one minute. The dots first turn from grey to white, indicating that five minutes have passed. Then the second countdown begins and the dots turn to orange. When all five dots are orange, the regatta is underway. This elegant timepiece features a guilloché decoration on the dial, is powered by an automatic movement and features a water resistance of 100 meters.
Norqain Adventure Sport
As its name suggests, the Norqain Adventure Sport has been developed for the world of adventure. It comes in a stainless-steel case with a knurled bezel and ceramic ring. The distinctive gray dial has been decorated with this unique “Norqain pattern” that changes color when the light hits it at different angles. This robust timepiece is powered by an automatic movement with a quick date adjustment. It is water-resistant to 100 meters and comes on a resistant and comfortable Nordura fabric strap.
Oris Aquis GMT Date
For those planning to cross time zones this summer (let’s hope we can!), the Oris Aquis GMT Date Automatic is the watch for you. This high-performance timepiece can display three time zones at the same time – one via the central hands, a second via the GMT central hand, and the third by aligning the bezel with the central hour hand. Add to this an impressive water resistance of 300 meters and this watch is ready for an adventure both in the sea and overseas!
Panerai Submersible
Anything from Panerai is perfect for the water as diving is at the heart of everything the brand does. We have a particular fondness for this model with its cool gray and blue color scheme, 300-meter water resistance, and unique Panerai design with the circle-in-a-cushion case shape and crown protector. We also like the blue ceramic unidirectional bezel with luminescent markings and this rough-textured gray dial, which is extremely stylish.
TAG Aquaracer
TAG Heuer completely revamped its Aquaracer line this year, implementing a host of small design updates that make the watch sleeker than ever before. It is slightly smaller, has new knurling on the bezel, and has newly designed lugs that allow for a more comfortable fit. This model particularly caught our eye with its matt gray titanium case and bracelet, green dial and green ceramic bezel. The timepiece has a water resistance of 300 meters, making it a strong contender for the beach this summer.
Ulysse Nardin Diver Chronograph
This brand-new chronograph from Ulysse Nardin is the perfect timepiece for the water, whether you are diving, sailing, kite surfing, or hanging out on your superyacht (well, we can dream too, right?). With its manufacture automatic chronograph movement, water resistance to 300 meters, and a combination of stainless steel and titanium, this watch is both durable and elegant. It comes on a choice of a blue rubber strap or a stainless-steel bracelet.
