For me, nothing beats the CW Super compressor for a holiday sun fun watch! Omega seamaster 300 heritage would be my second choice if the holiday wasn't quite so sun fun.

BA give us 23kg, so that is 46kg my wife manages to cram in😀
To be honest with my shirts & trainers I do take up about 15kg, but the rest is her & I don’t stand in the way of beauty. 😜

Can’t think of a better sun fun watch either, my friend has just bought one & it looks great.

The CW, yeah? I've had it a year now and love it. It's got its slight issues, but as a vintage inspired piece of original watch design, it's so incredibly striking. Definitely a boardshorts and cocktails piece!

Funny you should say that! :)

The Super Compressor was one of my selections for a sand and sea trip earlier this year.

The Seamaster 300 heritage made the cut as one of five taken on a recent two week walking holiday.

Note to self - not sure why I took five, as usual I only ended up wearing the three favourites and the two “but what if I need to wear a beater” selections remained unworn.

^^^ the sand and sea holiday was the SC, Explorer and BB58.

The most recent walking holiday was these five.

I didn’t end up wearing the Seiko or CWC.

I bought one specific watch for Holidays - the CW C65 SC OB, plus, I added 3 different quick release straps and a bracelet to alter the look.

Ha, I love it. Five watches for a walking holiday :) :)

One for every possible weather? One for each day of the week?
