Check out the Timex Weekender. I've had several compliments about this $30 watch and there's a seemingly infinite number of alternate bands which are easily changeable.

u/triguy616 · 4 pointsr/Watches

Maybe it's reasonable for a new model, but it's over 2x the usual price.

Found this one on amazon, looks pretty similar, but for $45.

u/allan37825 · 3 pointsr/Watches

Hi yall,

I am new to this hobby and looking for a low-cost watch that is casual smart. I've read way too many reviews, but still cannot decide which one deserves my hard earn cash.

Current Options:

u/JitteryPenguin · 3 pointsr/malefashionadvice

when i went to my interview most of the IT guys were wearing slacks / chinos and button downs with sweaters. some with a tie, some without. That's a far nicer dress code than anywhere else I've ever worked. This is uncharted territory for me.

I wasn't really thinking of a traditional dress watch. just something simple. like This Timex honestly.

u/bigbootypanda · 3 pointsr/Watches

The Weekender, it's a quartz movement, and it can be fitted with basically any strap. You said your nephew is active, he can pick up a cloth NATO for himself for on ebay for something like $7-12.

Alternatively, you could do a Seiko 5, it's a rugged watch, but maybe slightly less suited to a 16 year old?

u/ere737 · 3 pointsr/malefashionadvice

I'm trying to decide on a Timex Weekender to be paired mainly with casual/denim clothing. The more versatile, the better. It appears the main things to decide on are 1. case size (40mm or 38mm), 2. face style (chronograph or standard), 3. face color, and 4. strap color. Below are a few of the options I've been looking at; I'm open to other ideas also.

40mm

u/skyleth · 3 pointsr/Watches

I think the Orient Bambino would be a good pick (it's also available in a silver finish but black band so you'd have to change that yourself), more interesting than a sea of similar Bulova, Citizen, and Seiko quartz dress watches.

This Seiko Chronograph might be nice also but busier. And coming in well below budget is the Timex Forty Weekender.

u/liangster7 · 2 pointsr/Nexus6P

It's some Timex I got for $17 on Black Friday. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LW3RCW8?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00

Looks like it jumped up to $60, crazy!

u/braising · 2 pointsr/femalefashionadvice

I have a timex weekender watch and I'm hoping to get another timepiece that fits the same nato strap that I already have, but with a DATE INDICATOR. I don't know the technical term for this feature and I'm having a devil of a time tracking something like this down? Any help or suggestions appreciated. My strap is approx 2cm/3/4" wide.

this is my watch

u/thebarrytone · 2 pointsr/frugalmalefashion

I would definitely look at Timex or Casio, then. A popular choice is the Timex Weekender, and you can get them with a 1-piece leather strap like this that can be swapped out with a host of other colors and options in seconds. I have and love this watch, but the one criticism is a very, very loud tick. Wait for sales to get it cheaper, and stock up on various bands and enjoy!

u/NAKED_AND_JAMESON · 2 pointsr/malefashionadvice

So, both of the watches you linked are described as "fashion brand" watches. This means that a popular clothing company has taken a pre-existing quartz movement (usually) then put it into a casing of their choosing and branded it. These watches generally won't break, but they are usually poorer quality than watches made by genuine watch brands at approximately the same price point.

Timex is a good starting point for watches. They look good, hold up well, and generally have very few issues. They're also fairly inexpensive. They typically use quartz movements. Quartz movements use circuit boards and batteries to operate the watch. They're accurate, but the cheapest method for creating a watch.

The second primary method for a operating a watch is automatic movements. These can either be hand-wound by the dial on the side of the watch, or they use a small weight in the watch to automatically (see: name) wind the watch as you move. As your arm moves, the weight spins around and winds up the watch. Automatic watches are more expensive generally, but usually also higher quality.

A good brand for automatic starter watches is Orient. They have a number of offerings in the ~$100-$150 price range that are very very good quality for the money you're paying.

Here are some specific recommendations for watches that are a great bang-for-buck ratio:

  1. Orient Mako II (automatic, $169, "dive watch" style).

  2. Orient Bambino (automatic, $159, "formal" style).
  3. Timex Weekender (quartz, $37, casual)

  4. Seiko 5 Automatic (automatic, $70, "formal" style).

    Generally speaking, most watches from Timex, Seiko, and Orient are all great, quality starter watches. I personally own an Orient Mako II in pepsi, which I love. Feel free to PM or check out /r/watches for more information.
u/Scooby-Dooo · 2 pointsr/Watches

Definitely a weekender, looks like this one here

u/frmmtl · 2 pointsr/malefashionadvice

For watches, I've owned smart watches (pebble and a moto 360) and own many analog watches. I prefer analog to a fitness or smart watch any day of the week if your primary purpose is to have a watch on your wrist (and not an extension of your smart phone).

For watches, I have 3 recommendations, all under $100:

  1. Timex Weekender: This is a cheap, <$40 watch. Nothing too fancy but it's become somewhat of a staple. [Here's a link.](http://www.amazon.com/Timex-T2P4959J-Weekender-Display-Leather/dp/B00LW3RCW8/ref=sr_1_1?
    s=apparel&ie=UTF8&qid=1464118386&sr=1-1&nodeID=6358539011&keywords=timex+weekender)
  1. Seiko SNK809: This is a fantastic automatic watch. I have one on my wrist right now. It's a great intro to automatic watches. Link Here.
  2. MVMT watches. I've read a lot of good things about these. They have a very minimalist design which a lot of people like. Link here.

    Watches are extremely personal. The colour of dial, bezel, and strap can be endlessly customized. Gold tones are very popular right now though a black strap/silver or white dial will always be a classic.
    Another thing to consider is the size of the bezel. You'll want to pick the right size of watch depending on your wrist size.
u/packmann10 · 1 pointr/malefashionadvice

I was actually about to pick up this Timex before I saw the Citizen. However there were more than a few reviews stating that the watch was excessively loud, something that I'd really like to avoid.

u/Desi_US · 1 pointr/Watches

I'm looking to buy a watch that I can use everyday -formal,casual setting with minimal maintenance. I haven't used a watch in years so there may be times when I won't use a watch. Based on the buying guide, I feel a Quartz watch may be better suited for me than an Automatic. I can't really finalize a watch from the list. Your advice/recommendations will help!

u/Target359 · 1 pointr/puns

If you can afford it, buy some decent wrist watches and display them in a modified red igloo container with pretty lining with a note that says "Thanks for watching after me."

I like this watch design, but that's my personal opinion.

u/SirLaxer · 1 pointr/Watches

Under $100, with that particular style, I'd recommend the Timex Weekender. You can throw on a NATO strap if you can't find a Weekender with a band you particularly like, but if you just search for "Timex" in men's watches you may find a similar model you like.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00LW3RCW8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awd_NKlKwbXQRB65S

If you like the look of the chronographs, though (that's the first watch in your pictures), you can get this watch and buy a leather strap with the money you're saving.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QIJ6HW2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awd_MQlKwbWNSA6P0

Make sure to check out the customer images in the reviews for both of those; despite their price; they look pretty slick.

u/ProphetOfTalos · 1 pointr/frugalmalefashion

I ordered this Timex Weekender with a leather strap yesterday after about a year of having a black Weekender. The Weekender is more casual than a Fairfield I think but you can't beat it for $33 (and Amazon Prime free shipping).

u/amtehrani · 1 pointr/frugalmalefashion

Which one of the buckeled straps would be closest in color to this?

u/Weast_of_Eden · 1 pointr/malefashionadvice

yeah it's this one.

u/INmySTRATEjaket · 1 pointr/nfl

A cheap, reliable, do it all watch is timex. The straps are easily replaceable so you can buy straps to customize a little too. R/watches hails rolex, timex and seiko as the ideal 3 brands. Timex being the cheapest, rolex being the most expensive obviously.

Edit: This is the particular watch I'm talking about.

Timex Unisex T2P495 Weekender Oversize Brown Leather Slip-Thru Strap Watch https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00LW3RCW8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_RcVwzbZB3F0Y2

It's reliable, light, easy to read, crazy comfortable and keeps time better than almost anything else i own and it's cheap. Plus the leather strap matches everything.

I work in a pizza place and the cornmeal has destroyed far "nicer" watches in short time. This thing has lasted through daily use for a year now though.

u/mynameistheodb · 1 pointr/funhaus

Yeah, the Weekender is the one I ended up getting. I really like it, it fulfills the two tasks I require of a watch: 1) telling time and 2) not looking terrible. It's cheap enough (not $15 like I originally said, I paid $35) that you don't really even need to get it repaired, you could just buy another one. If it has sentimental value for you though, you do you.

u/Glockspeiser · 1 pointr/Watchexchange

Nope regular

u/Nothingcreativeatm · 1 pointr/Watches

If you want something simple, classy, and inexpensive, I'm a fan of a Timex Weekender. They usually come with a cloth strap, but this one is listed with a leather one, or you can buy a leather one for it and a tool to switch it out with and still be at half the cost of the ones you linked.

u/metaknight95 · 1 pointr/malefashionadvice

Just ordered my first nice suit yesterday from suit supply, and now I'm trying to get a watch to go with it. The suit is Navy blue, and so I've been trying to find a simple budget watch (for under $150) to go with it. Some of the watches I've been looking at online are

u/GrainGalleries · 0 pointsr/Watchexchange

Recently bought a Timex Weekender off of amazon for $44. Not exactly my cup of tea, and didn't buy it recently enough to be return it. I've worn it 2 times and there's nothing wrong with it. The face appears off white in this picture because of the lighting, it's actually white. Comes with the standard brown genuine leather strap. $35 shipped, no paypal fees if you go friends and family.

u/turdbogls · 0 pointsr/Watches

people here are kinda snobby....if it isn't a mechangical (automatic, smooth second hand, not ticking) they typically dont like them.

I personally really like the look of this watch....for $60 its probably not bad. quality is what you would expect from a $60 watch...expect the glass to be just regular glass (not sapphire or even mineral crystal), expect the writing/markings to be decent but not great, dont expect the lume to be good at all. and expect the "leather" band to be cheap and stiff.

good beginner watches for under $100 are not hard to come by.

Timex has some nice (and similar looking to this) watches for under $50

  • weekender
  • Fairfield

    dont worry about the straps, they can be swapped easily or purchased with other ones.

    Casio is another good cheaper brand

    if you want to look into mechanicals, a really nice entry level mechanical watch brand is Orient...they have a slew of different styles, and they are a pretty well respected watch brand on this sub. fit and finish are really nice for the cash. I picked up my Orient mako for under $100 last year with a metal bracelet, and bought this leather strap from clockworksynergy.com for $12.
