The onset of summer typically brings about more vibrant, fun-spirited ensembles. Think: punchy playsuits, embellished sandals, and an assortment of cheerful prints. It goes without saying then, that the watches we don for summer should be equally as interesting and dynamic.
From whimsical pink flamingo motifs to rainbow-hued glitter tickers, the details in these pieces infuse a sense of playfulness into watches — the accessory that’s been far too serious for far too long.
Here are the cutest, quirkiest timepieces to own for the season:
