‘Tis the season to pick up a summer beater watch for BBQing, volleyballing, rooftop cocktailing (in moderation, of course), and other activities of summery persuasion during which you don’t want to bang up your fancy watch, or that watch your grandpa gave you that he wore through Operation Market Garden in 1944. Leave that thing at home.
What you should wear is one of these — a Timex Expedition Scout 36mm field watch. The Expedition Scout features a quartz movement, quick-set date and 50m of water resistance. Right now you can take 24% one of two versions: a black dial with a green canvas strap or a tan-colored dial with a blue fabric strap. Both watches feature Indiglo backlight technology and an inner 24-hour track for a handsome, military-inspired aesthetic.
