E editor’s picks Kyboe Pastels Preferred Retaining the core elements that make a Kyboe an affordable but robust expression of style, the brand is looking ahead to fall trends and beyond to capture the fashion-forward look of pastels. This new collection includes muted hues of slate blue and firebrick red along with taupe, powder blue and orchid tones - among others. Unlike most of the Kyboe series, the new pastel collection will not be available in a multiple range of sizes and will be offered in only the 40mm case at $190. At 40mm these watches may not be the biggest or baddest watch on the shelf, but they are definitely large enough to not look out of place on a man’s wrist, especially if that man likes a particular color. Kyboe watches are made to be worn everywhere and are water resistant to 10atm with a screw-down crown and a uni-directional bezel for timing events up to an hour. One of Kyboe’s ubiquitous cool factors has to be the pushbutton dial lighting system, which is also incorporated into the new collection. www.kyboe.com 108 | AboutTime Magazine
