You know that a watch designed by a bunch of surfers is going to do 2 things well: resist water and look cool. The Freestyle The Karlton Watch, as expected, promises 100 meter water resistance and can handle some serious abuse. The overall vibe of the collection falls somewhere between carefree and bold with a hint of retro. Even the straps bring style in waves, available in polyurethane, stainless steel or stainless steel with polyurethane center links.
