Here Are Some of the Best Recent Watch Releases You Might Have Missed

If you need a break from current events in 2020 — and we can only imagine that you desperately need one — you should check out some of the coolest watches of the past couple weeks. Ranging from affordable G-Shocks to “if you have to ask”-priced Urwerks, these releases run the gamut.

So enjoy the dive watches while the weather’s warm!
