United Colors of Benetton

No, I ain't getting a UCB watch for today's post. But I thought it was apt as I have been adding colours into my watch collection, and I already have an in-coming burgundy piece going the green piece that I have in my winder. But I digress.

Green
I love the lively colour of green. Nature is all around us and green is the colour of live. For that, I have the Submariner Hulk when I am green with envy :) And the military Rangeman for the outdoor activities, of course.

Orange
Who doesn't love a tinge of orange in their watches? I thought so. And the orange GMT hand on the Explorer ii really does stand out to the contrast of the black dial.

Blue
You won't be singing the blues when you have these beauties strapped onto your wrist. The domed sapphire on the Poseidon bronze piece really made it a very attractive watch. The 50th Anniv Bluefin Tuna was one of the more comfy Tuna as it had a scalloped caseback that followed the contour of one's wrist. And I can't comment on the 125th Anniv Genesis as yet, as it was still pending arrival into my collection.

Pepsi
The re-issued Turtle Prospex was a real beauty and I just added her into my collection. Off went the rubbery strap and in went a thick military-spec Zulu Extreme sourced from overseas. It was really a beautiful piece and I can see her getting lots of wrist time.

Grey/ Black
You won't get many watches with genuine carbon fibre dial, and the Kirium Ti5 had the real deal. No faux CF for this top-of-the-line Kirium, and when light catches onto the dial, it simply looks electric! The Military Camo had not seen much wrist time, but was still an attractive piece in its own regard. Time to put it to more service time then, if you get what I mean. And the PAM0005 with its sandwich dial was just too sexy to describe over words. You simply had to see it to admire it.

Panda
A Speedy Panda, and in colours as per the picture. Picture perfect!

Burgundy Red
An in-coming piece, which I had not seen or touched in person and backed up the Kickstarter project purely based on the design, passion of the maker, and the quality parts to be utilised. Rest assured that a review would be forthcoming when this piece arrives in due course.

There you have it- the United Colours of Benetton in my collection during the interim period (or soon to be, pending the arrival of the ordered pieces).
