I am in need of a new watch. I've set myself a limit of £200, and the only must is a silver steel strap. The only brand within that price bracket which has really stood out to me is Hanowa / Swiss Military watches. Heres my fave's from their product range:
I was very interested in number 4 and have arranged the distributor to have one sent to my local stockist for me to view on Saturday, but this evening I stumbled across number 1 which is nice and similar to 4, but less huge and heavy. I did look at number 3 earlier today and it is rather big.
Whats other peoples opinions? Swiss Military's range can be found here
Tag Heuer do nice watches but they're one 0 over budget.
Whats peoples opinions, or links (pics plz) to other class watches?

Get an Acutron, the best watch ever made by the hands of men.

I don't know why you'd want to spend so much money on a watch, but eh. If I had a choice between those four I'd take the second one. I suggest looking at a watch from Fossil.

nah, but i like to look like a robot with a sleek steel wristband. none of that leather nonsense. besides the exposed wires and shit looks corny, imo.

Just because you still wear Elizabeth Duke doesn't mean the rest of us do.
