I wear an $80 fossil watch I've had for the last 5 years.
Me too got it as a gift!

I had a great Rolex President knockoff with a diamond bezel that my brother gave me years ago. A guy burglarized my condo and stole it, obviously thought he scored a real Rolex!

Received this as a gift a few years ago.

I have been advocating citizen a lot in the thread.

Great watch for a couple hundred bucks.

I'm shocked we're on page 8 and BIG ACH hasn't chimed in with his giant 100mm diameter watched reminiscent of flava flav

Yep, mine is rose gold though.   I have a Santos and Tank model as well, but the Santos is at my gfs house now and my Tank model is at my parents house in GA.  The Tank is just too fucking big.  Makes me feel like I am wearing Captain Americas shield.

A Cartier Tank watch is one of the more quiet, understated watches in the jewelry world.
A men’s Tank watch is 1.25 inch by 1.50 inch.

 Apocryphally, it’s called a Tank watch because the first one was given to General “Blackjack” Pershing to thank him for using tanks in keeping the Germans out of Paris in WWI. It is not remotely a watch that would be worn in a battle situation.

There are many other brands that ape it.

Simple yet distinctive, inexpensive, and their warranty is excellent.

A lot of nice watches in here, but they're too busy for my tastes.

Movado, which I bought over 7 years ago.  But if/when it dies I doubt I'll replace it with any watch since I can just use my cellphone to check time.

Personally I'm not big on status-items like an expensive watch but to each their own.

My bad, I mistyped, meant Santos was too big.  I have the Santos 100 w/ brown alligator strap and it is a beast.  Heavy as fuck too.
