Suggestions On Colorful Watches Please!
Hello from Tampa, Florida, USA Crunchers! Okay, I need some suggestions:
If you are familiar with my collection, you know that I do not have any watches that have colorful dials (unless you count the Citizen Promaster with the full lume dial as colorful) but anyway, I have been looking at the 2 watches that I have attached above. The Greenport from Long Island Watches with the Sunburst Blue Dial and the 1963 Sugess Seagull in the color scheme pictured above. I would have to put another strap on it because I am not too keen on the brown color.
So, my fellow chronological nerds, what watches with a colorful dial would you recommend? As you can see by the price of the 2 watches here, anything below $500 is fine.
Have at it in the comments. Looking forward to all of your suggestions 😀

Look at the #phoibos catalog

I own two of their models (got from Marc at Long Island Watch), and their build quality is very good for the price point.
I like the Islander watch but for chrono I would go with the Brew Metric Retro Dial, the Seagull isn’t an original design

Love the Greenport!! Very cool design at s very attractive price. I'd say go for that if you're interested.
If you're not afraid of AliEpxress, I'd also recommend the San Martin GMT with the Lapis Lazuli dial (SN0129G - B). It's gorgeous!
(not my pic, btw)
The proxima PX1717 comes in avacado and watermelon. And has an open case back which shows the interesting the seagull movement.

You know you like chrono's 😜
Colorful watches are fun. I don't know about your personal preferences but personally I would lean toward the Watermel0n (Gen2) from Studio Underd0g.
I have my eyes on a Marloe. Seeking my summer watch. 😎
Anything Farer makes ;)

Yes I do. I love busy bezels and busy faces too😂😜
My 36mm Nomos Club Campus in future orange 🍊 🔥👌
I've just read your poat properly, so the Nomos maybe out of your ideal price point at the moment, but it's a cracking hand wound movement with a beautiful bright dial! 🌞
3 of my favorites
I like colorfull life , so sugges
Lots of colorful options in the Seiko 5 Sport range.
Preowned Zelos has options within your preferred price range while offering a kaleidoscope of rich colors and dial textures.
I picked up this limited edition titanium anti-magnetic beauty within the price point you mentioned.
Happy hunting!

You want color? How about the Swatch Neon to the Max? It's a crazy colored working chronograph. Probably one of my most commented on watch in person. Usually like, What in the world is that. Lol

I very much agree though the Chinese watch was recently selling for less than £100 (for a mechanical chronograph—hold that thought). If only more Chinese watchmakers put a little bit more originality into their designs—everything else is in place for them.
The Jet Star comes in many colorful variations.
I have the maroon. There's also the gold / brown and the silver with red and blue details.
Zelos and Studio Underdog seem to be good choices for fun/colorful watches. Also certain Nodus watches have a lot of color
As a fan of Aragon which is in the Miami, I have some sub $350 suggestions
#uboat have some nice colourful watches that are also oil filled :D
Tissot Sideral - it’s a little over $500 but definitely colorful and one of my favorite and most comfortable watches.
Color + water (you live in Tampa) = Doxa
My 1970s vintage Divingstar below, but lots of new options.
I don't have any experience with this brand yet, but the Straton Yacht Racer colors caught my eye the other day: https://www.stratonwc.com/products/straton-yacht-racer-quartz

Haha. I'm taking that as a compliment. Thanks 😂
Brew Retrograph in Technicolor
The also have a fun 8-bit Retro dial, too
Great recommendation! I love how these Brew Retrographs are colorful but not overdone. And combined with that case shape it's a really unique and quirky watch.
Haven’t seen this one in person yet but I love the Mido Baroncelli Chronograph Moonphase colour way.
Found this LE Gshock on the Vestiaire Collective website. Pretty dope.
Zenith has a wide range of colorful Chronomasters. Sleek, luxurious, and playful! SwissWatchExpo has a great inventory of Chronomasters: https://www.swisswatchexpo.com/search/?q=chronomaster
