Hi, does anyone know any good brands of watches that are fashionable, but simple? I've been looking for watches for a while, and I'm not sure what to buy...
Things I have looked at are vintage Swatch watches on eBay, but most are used and scratched.
Can anyone help me out? I prefer these types:

Under a $100 is good, and nothing too hipstery please :unsmith:
Thanks!
Nixon watches are very good.

Or you could this. It's like wearing Daft Punk on your arm. Even if you can't read it.

Here's the one I use. It's cheap, and looks pretty styling. Don't get digital watches, they're lame.

Beautiful watch. I love it. It's digital though.
I have one of those old pocket watches, bought it from a thrift store. Too fucking classy.

Only 4.99.
Movado Bold.

Have one. Get all the pussy.
PS: If you care about fashion, I recommend getting the grey-on-black, 44mm model. A) It's larger than the 36mm, and B) the shades of gray and black go with every other colour, whereas blues and pinks only match certain outfits.
What's wrong with hipster? :colbert:

You are an idiot then. It's an analog clock without numbers. Guess. Everything usually happens on the hour or the half anyway.

These watches are extremely useless, and are only interested by hipsters trying to be cool.
Damn man, those all look like really gay pieces of plastic. The only good watches are gold and silver watches (in my opinion). $8000 platinum rolex fuck yeah. Even a cheaper steel watch is cool. Metal pretty much wins. Not a gay plastic kid's watch...
You'll get robbed wearing a metal watch though.
Digital watches are really gay aswell
Have a look at this badass motherfucker:

Oh shoot, whats that type of clock/watch called? I can't think of the name.
EDIT: Binary Clock.
Out of the above options, the Nixon time teller and Movado watches are probably your best bet. The Nixon has a Japanese movement (probably Miyota), and the Movado is Swiss. Both are decent quality Quartz movements and will keep good time.
The Nixon is fucking plastic though. Sure it's probably plenty durable, and it's only $60 retail, but the plastic would make me steer clear.
You won't get the Movado posted for under $100 though.

You'll get robbed wearing that godawful thing. Good was to make a $2000 watch that is sold for $5000 worth $20,000. The only thing good about that fucker is the meteorite (I believe) dial. To each his own, but the only Rolex I'd consider is a Milgauss. DAT SECOND HAND.

No it isn't.
>Simple

Choose two.
My watch;
Pros: bright orange, water proof (10 atm), very resilient and scratch resistant, Orange bits on the face and hands glow in the dark and keeps great, accurate time
Cons: date slot can only be wound forward (if you accidentally set it a day forward have fun letting it sit for a day or winding it until it goes back) and the black bits of the body (60, 30, 45 and squared ware off):

I own this watch in Grey/White with a white band. It is a decent watch, and was only $75, IIRC.
