As the elements gradually begin to align with the calendar (the days are getting longer at least), the arrival of "spring/summer" styles is finally beginning to feel appropriate.
To compliment the lighter shades of the (occasionally) warmer months ahead, London-based watch group UNKNOWN has updated its range with a set of cool seasonal tones and the introduction of a new, angular model.
The insect-adorned Natural Selection series (£80) gains three new models, sporting a moth, bee and beetle, while the simple features of the Classic (£80) have been reworked in lighter colour combinations of silver, pale blue and an attractive ever green. An all-metal golden variety (£125) adds some formal charm to the range.

In addition to pallet updates for the dial-filled Engineered (£125) and date-displaying Dandy (£85), UNKNOWN introduces a new model in the form of the Urban (£85) - a modernist face of angles and shapes in dark blue, black and gold (no, it's not white - no matter which way you turn it).

Set to go on sale on the UNKNOWN online store in the next few days, at least your watch will be on trend - even if your gloves, scarf and extra layers are more appropriate.
