Any reasonable priced watch recommendations?

The face of that Military Seiko is attractive but anything less that 40mm looks too dainty on my rufty tufty arms.

The forum needs a dedicated watch section or at the very least a cloak room.

It's a talking point, and you could hammer horse shoes with it all day, and it'll still tell the time.

I was going to join another site, but the watch thread I found to be in poor taste (I'm usually skint). £50 seiko's and the like are more my line. It really is another World to be able to strap something so banal as a watch to your wrist, that costs more than what I paid for my house.

That Skagen is a lovely piece of understatement, though.

Good Man! Reassuring to see what you said. The watch threads are, without doubt, my least favourite topics on the two shaving forums I'm familiar with. Very recently I saw a photo of a watch on someone's wrist (I think it was on TSR) depicting a model that meant nothing to me (not surprisingly) but I looked up similar watches coz I rather suspected it was gonna be a bit pricey. The similar models I saw elsewhere were available between £30,000 and £60,000. Wow. Not sure what the thinking behind posting pictures inferring ownership of a watch that costs that much...but I guess if you've got it, flaunt it.

I DO like nice watches, but I'll never in a million years be able to afford one at £30k! Wow incredible....
A nice £300 Seiko, to me, is a very nice watch indeed...

Indeed, DevonStan. If someone wishes to judge me on a bauble, a five quid Casio makes for an great impromptu berk filter. Ok Rowlers, I guess £300 is do-able!

Don't get me wrong there @Cat_man_do, I'm not advising that £300 is a daily watch, more like it is an extravagance as a nice birthday present for yourself or someone... My £300 is someones else £30000.
My daily is a £50 G-Shock...
