Unnecessarily water resistant? Check.

This Seiko dive watch has all the makings of a perfect summer watch. It has a big chunky case that protects a mechanical movement inside, even all the way down to 200 meters below the surface of the ocean. Do you really need a watch that can go that deep? No, but that’s not the point — a solid summer beater should be almost excessively tough. It should also be style-appropriate for warm weather, and the Samurai’s red-and-blue color scheme, rubber strap and textured dial manage to be both fun and reserved.

Most importantly, a good summer beater should be affordable. Right now, Macy’s has it marked down from its $495 MSRP to $356, so this is one of the most accessibly-priced mechanical dive watches you can get right now.
