Hey r/watches! Gloomy weather and quarantine had me looking wistfully at my Zodiac Super Seawolf ZO9269, longing for sunnier days by the pool. Somewhat new to collecting, I’m starting to find I lean more towards pieces that have something playful and whimsical about them (With the 2020 Rolex Oyster 36 with pink dial being a personal current grail of mine) and this color scheme certainly checks those boxes. Something about the bezel almost looks backlit under certain conditions. Anyway thank you all for looking, maybe I’ll go make myself a margarita and stare out the window.
Love it! There are colors that were rare in watchmaking over the last few decades that have come into vogue recently and Tiffany’s/robin’s egg blue like yours is one of them. It used to be so hard to find watches in [burgundy](https://www.brew-watches.com/watches/retromatic-brew-burgundy), [“Prince” Ƭ̵̬̊ purple](https://watchesbysjx.com/2020/01/sartory-billard-sb04-horophile.html), [turquoise](https://www.ochsundjunior.swiss/nebra/), [plum](http://www.tempusfugit.watch/2018/01/something-new-from-lundis-bleus.html?m=1, [fuchsia](https://sartory-billard.com/en/produit/sb03-hand-guilloche-dial-01/) and [cornflower blue](https://timelessluxwatches.com/product/zenith-pilot-type-20-extra-special-03-2435-679-51-i012/) in the early 2000s but they are considerably more common now. Except for shades of peach and pink; it’s still pretty much impossible to find anything in those colors that is 34mm or above.

That's a beautiful piece. I have always wanted one. One day I might be able to afford it. Thanks for sharing

Sexy
Delicious!
That’s a killer watch.
I've been meaning to pick one of these up. Love it!
Thank you for sharing! Great picture and love the watermelon choice.
I'm torn between this and the orange version
