I used the Garmin Forerunner 10 for the last 5 years or so, and it was a fine watch. My only complaint was that it could take forever to lock GPS. I recently upgraded to a fancy expensive one, so it seems a little lacking now, but honestly it never bothered me for the 5 years that I used it. I like having more advanced metrics in my new watch, but seriously, distance/pace/time is enough for anybody to run with.
A second minor complaint was that you had to hook it up via the charger to a computer to sync. Looks like the newest version, the Garmin Forerunner 25 has BT connection. I'd go for that one.
Another thing people don't consider is that the fancy smart watches all have nice color screens with touch sensitive abilities. The fancy screens suck the battery life and you have to charge daily. My old FR10 could go 1-2 weeks between charging because it has a simple LCD screen. And touch screens suck for running.

It's $100. There's also a FR15 and FR20, not sure what was added in each model but you could save even more getting one of those. Or, just rock a pink FR25 and save some cash that way:

I had a neon green FR10 for just that reason. Figure with all the other obnoxious colors running shoes come in having an obnoxious running watch wasn't a big deal.
