I interpreted it as the watch(es) I’ll take on my summer holidays - and for some reason I always associate blue watches with summer - so these - one for the pool an one for bar…
Neomatik Atlantic. It is extremely versatile for the season, dive or dress up.
Excellent choice, sir! Nomos is a fantastic brand. I don't have one (yet) but my wife owns an Orion and I'm so jealous 😁 Probably best value in the European watch market if you appreciate in-house production.
I sould have been this Casio. Sorry for the bad picture, but you get the idea.
But I wore it one time and missed my Seamaster the whole day. So I just wear the Seamaster as I does the rest of the year, but somtimes I put it on a Citizen rubber strap for that extra toolie, summer look.
I've got a few I rotate between but these two cover most based as summer watch. White dial with great water resistance is always great, but so is a small light supper comfy watch like the G10(of course no good for a swim though).
Got my official vintage summer watch back from service! Tissot Seastar PR 516 circa 1966 on a nice mesh bracelet. Cheap as chips but charming nonetheless. Can't go wrong with a black dial & crosshair combo 😎
Something you don't see everyday: lime green tritium indexes.
Bracelet change! Nothing says "summer watch" like a rally bracelet.
Wearing this watch made me wonder if I've ventured too far into '70s aesthetics... @JwRosenthal once said that if you are wearing a Tissot PR 516 you "need to listen to Kraftwerk and wear turtlenecks with leather jackets to really pull it off". Luckily I'm a fan of both Kraftwerk and turtlenecks, so I think I'm safe.

Correction
Nothing says "summer watch" like a purple rally bracelet!
Damn this thing looks bonkers, I love it 😁 Now I've for sure ventured too far into '70s aesthetics. No amount of Kraftwerk or turtlenecks can remedy a fashion crime of this magnitude.
Summer is over 🙁 Here's a pic of my summer watch gang.
Tissot PR 516 got the most wrist time, followed by the Candino. I wore Sinn 104 maybe ten times. It's my rugged outdoor watch and sadly I often ended up being enjoying cigars and beer instead of going bike riding or hiking. Hopefully I get to do some hiking this fall!
