Help me pick a watch

[slackerinabox]

My old watch, a stainless steel chronograph, looks kinda tacky and young to me now. I'm looking for something simple and elegant, though can't afford something expensive.

Which one do you guys like?

Watch #1

Watch #2

Watch #3

Watch 4

I like the face on 1/2 better than the others, but I'm not big on cloth bands. I like silver bands more than those ones.

I'd go with 1 or 2 though over those other ones.

They all suck, but 3 is the least offensive.

Simple and elegant fits 1 and 2 . Bracelets make watches look sporty, so elegant and simple is out. I'd go with option 2 since the black numerals and strap are more neutral than the brown from option 1 and will go with more attire.

I'm not sure what the cost on those watches is, but why not consider something more main stream like a nice fossil or if you can afford it, a nicer citizen or seiko.

I love the look of 4, but I really like the WW2 pilot watches...

I bought and Eco-Drive when I was down in Jamaica on my honeymoon for $153. My favorite watch by far.

$29-$40, which seems like a bargain. I'm just looking for something to wear to interviews, my fossil and guess watches are a bit over the top. Though a seiko would be nice, I need to get that job before getting one of those
