Certain watches just aren’t designed for year-round wear—especially ones that tend to use brighter colors and lighter band materials such as canvas, nylon, and even thin metal mesh. However, when the summer comes around, these colors and materials are a great way to add a little pop to your attire. The only catch? Spending thousands of dollars on a seasonal watch isn’t exactly the most economical use of funds, not-to-mention you’re probably better off putting that cash towards a great summer vacation. Or a brand new vaporizer.
So to make things a little easier on both your wallet and your time (literally), we’ve done the research for you and compiled five stylish, well-made watches that you can purchase today for less than $500. Not a bad deal for a seasonal timepiece that should last you for many summers to come.
