What's a good watch for under $100?
>>

the sun

>>11461360
Seiko 5, Citizen Quartz, or an Orient

All can be found for under $100 on Amazon, with cheap as hell same day shipping.

You can also order a Parnis, a Chinese watch, which has a Sea-gull movement, and the option of getting Sapphire glass. Generally a pretty good value for the money, but may run you a bit over $100.

Everyone else will say Seiko 5, but with it being in the $70 price range, while being an reputable automatic, is a damn good deal.

Being cheap I have both of these watches which cost me less than £100 (given how the UK is retarded that must be about $100 now)

based Boccia
>>
>>11471123
looking at that i'd love to buy it and yet it seems nearly impossible to find for the UK.
>>
>>11461785
This watch is a joke. Can not recommend unless you want TICKTICKTICK as your entrance music. Srsly.
>>
>>11472555
this one is indeed a bit rare. but I saw the white dial version on ebay

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BOCCIA-TITANIUM-MENS-41MM-LEATHER-BAND-TITANIUM-CASE-AUTOMATIC-WATCH-3539-01-/252407100416?hash=item3ac4a2b400:g:7wsAAOSwie5XS~qF

most other quartz Boccia watches are usually on Amazon but then again, I don't know about Amazon UK.
>>
>>11472628
ah those are crazy prices mind you, looking around they're trying to sell them between 250-350£

http://www.alltime.ru/watch/boccia-titanium/3539-01/69948/ sells them for under £100 but only deliver in russia.

Would happily pay the £40-50 to have it come here, it's a shame.
>>
>>11472634
yeah, maybe there will be a new offer sooner or later. just keep looking for it.

You're too much of a wristlet. You should probably avoid wearing watches.

Seiko 5 looks nice but the strap looks fucking awful
>>
>>11473924
Change it, straps are dirt cheap
>>
>>11461378
>Orient

Steer clear of orient mechanical watches, lose time pretty frequently
>>
>>11473924
Yeah, you can easily switch it out to a leather band, or even get a Seiko 5 with a different dial and steel band.
I would also highly recommend Citizen Eco-Drive. I have the E870 Perpetual Calendar and it is fantastic. The capacitor will last around 20 years, it is charged by light, not just sunlight, but even a lamp will charge it, and it can keep time for months if you don't use it due to that one charge. In terms of accuracy, mine is phenomenal. It states on nearly every Miyota movement on their website, that the capacitor and quartz lose +/- 20 seconds a month. Based on the other forum I use for this, their experience is similar to mine, where it only loses 3-6 seconds a month. So far my watch loses about one second per week, if that sometimes, so really my watch will lose less than a minute of time this year, which is fantastic, if it is generally consistent.
>>
>>11473977
What do you define as bad accuracy for an automatic mechanical watch?

Based on my orient and others experiences, that many of orients watches run under +/- 10 seconds a day, which is great considering its price. Not to mention I have one that's been running for 35+ years, movement is in pristine condition still.

I submit two:

Mondaine (formal)
Casio Gshock 5600 (casual)

Seiko 5 is a good cheap runner up

NATO strap for the win.
