Poor man's watch thread

[NiceGuyTom]

Just Got this Michael Kors watch for 180.. I love it but not really a fan of the strap.. any ideas on a different one same color though??

Carbon Fiber strap could be interesting, that black / red stripped NATO strap could be cool, or a sporty brown leather might work as well.

I'm not versed at all in watches, and to be quite honest the last watch I wore regularly was when I was a Sophmore in High School (Said Gucci and was made of metal but I don't know for sure. That was over 10 years ago.

Looking to pick up a nice first watch I can wear with a suit or casual business attire. Any suggestions?

I'd like it to be a cheap good watch, less than $350 or so.

I'd go with a used Hamilton Jazzmaster.

For every blue spark or mini monster, they have dozens of ugly watches.

Citizen does as well but they lack any of the hits.

It's beyond me why they would discontinue something like the Blue Spark. Have people just come to expect ugly watches and therefore ignore a tsteful watch?

I think Orient has a much better lineup, though they also have their share of uglies.

Which Orient models do you like especially?

Atm, I have my eyes on a Seiko 'Panda' 6138 Chronograph. The first automatic chrono the world has seen, yet few people, including those at Seiko, seem to find that worth mentioning.

Cool, I like that top one! Are they using saphire crystals?

 

[WhoKnewI]
