Our pick of timepieces that celebrate the sunny season
Swimsuit season is here—though here in the tropics, it's summer all year round. Which makes this selection of watches absolutely perfect as they evoke exuberance and vitality, whether it is through the gorgeous bright colours (think sky blue, soft pink, or orange) or the summery accents of beauty (Hermes, for one, delivers a chic equestrian motif).

BAUME & MERCIER
The new Riviera in 33mm comes with a violet dial decorated with fine transparent transfer waves. The riveted indexes and Roman numerals are paired with faceted rhodium-plated hands, and a date counter at 3 o'clock.
BELL & ROSS
The new BR05 GMT turns up the charm with a sky blue dial with a blue fourth hand indicating the 24-hour track in the inner bezel. The latter is given a two-tone treatment to distinguish between day and night.
