I don't really know much about that price segment

2017-08-19 18:38:36 UTC  

25 dollars.. i suggest saving up

2017-08-19 18:38:37 UTC  

There's some dirt cheap memes around $3 and then decent things about $50

2017-08-19 18:38:47 UTC  

or get terrorist watch

2017-08-19 18:38:51 UTC  

problem solved

2017-08-19 18:38:51 UTC  

Wrist size is more like 7.5 actually

2017-08-19 18:38:52 UTC  

Though I guess my advice would be look at Casio and Timex

2017-08-19 18:38:57 UTC  

That's fairly large

2017-08-19 18:40:13 UTC  

Timex Expedition is generally well liked. If you were expecting me to suggest things off ali for that price, think again

2017-08-19 18:40:23 UTC  

Unless you want a memechanical. But I doubt you do.

2017-08-19 18:40:26 UTC  

Actually I could go up to £70 possibly

2017-08-19 18:41:09 UTC  

You can get an all occasion collection of low end quartz or a single chink mechanical for that

2017-08-19 18:41:32 UTC  

leather straps are expensive

2017-08-19 18:41:33 UTC  

What do you suggest?

2017-08-19 18:41:56 UTC  

@Windatica eh as long as it is not metal it is fine

2017-08-19 18:42:01 UTC  

isn't £70 Seiko 5/Russian meme mechanical territory?

2017-08-19 18:42:34 UTC  

That or bagel or maybe a Parnis on clearout sale

2017-08-19 18:43:50 UTC  

go full chink for $50, buy like 8 watches that all lose time differently

2017-08-19 18:43:53 UTC  

B)

2017-08-19 18:44:02 UTC  

fug

2017-08-19 18:44:04 UTC  

I'd suggest a Casio F105w, and Timex Expedition **OR** Casio MTP-V005L-7A (or MTP-V007L-1E if you want to be a bit different) and a decent black leather strap

2017-08-19 18:44:39 UTC  

Should be more than doable on 70 quid

2017-08-19 18:44:50 UTC  

Latter two are definitely chink made as well :^)

2017-08-19 18:45:06 UTC  

Vostoks go for about that too on ebay

2017-08-19 18:45:10 UTC  

if you want to go down the Russian road

2017-08-19 18:45:20 UTC  

>Casio f105w

2017-08-19 18:45:22 UTC  

Wat

2017-08-19 18:45:23 UTC  

I don't think he'd enjoy a memechanical

2017-08-19 18:45:32 UTC  

Isn't that digital?

2017-08-19 18:45:35 UTC  

Objectively superior to f91w

2017-08-19 18:45:56 UTC  

digital watches = autism

2017-08-19 18:45:56 UTC  

You didn't specify that you didn't want it digital

2017-08-19 18:46:21 UTC  

I didn't, yes

2017-08-19 18:46:22 UTC  

Guess you can pick the other two then

2017-08-19 18:46:39 UTC  

Not sure if both those _and_ at least one aftermarket strap would be within your budget

2017-08-19 18:46:57 UTC  

Though you can buy a chink nato to put on the Timex

2017-08-19 18:48:07 UTC  

tbh I'd just go down to a watch shop and try on a few things

2017-08-19 18:48:13 UTC  

get an idea what you like then come back

2017-08-19 18:48:47 UTC  

If you don't need a watch for formal occasions you can just get the Timex Expedition scout metal and be done with it

2017-08-19 18:48:49 UTC  

Casio digital watches with Nato straps look poorfag-core and it's great
