With all of your upcoming summer travels and adventures, you want a frugally-priced watch that embraces the fun spirit of the season and won’t induce a heart attack if it takes a beating (or worse – gets lost or stolen) throughout your escapades. Mistura hand makes just such pieces from wood and other renewable resources. The Pellicano’s case and painted face have a retro feel, but the studded leather band is certainly a modern touch. With all that’s going on, this almost seems more like a decorative bracelet than a watch, yet sure enough, the vibrant design will keep you up-to-the-minute with its Japanese quartz movement by Citizen. Stack yours with colorful, braided cuffs, or just let this do all the talking on its own! Mistura Pellicano watch on Luisa via Roma for $281.
I personally love the more bright and vibrant watches. They add some flair into the wardrobe and a pop to a more subtle and restrained outfit. That’s why I’m in love with the Native watch with it’s stain glass-esque dial made from semi-precious stones: http://bit.ly/americana-brillier
