All quartz watches are about in the same ballpark, you may as well buy a Timex for $50 and it will keep time as accurately. I was simply trying to steer the guy towards a quality piece (Oris, really good and still undervalued craftmenship) that may be in his price range or stay with something like Oceanus that combines leading edge technology with quality and good looks.

Quartz wise, a $50 watch is no different than one selling for $2K or more sometimes, save for "name" on the dial and design there is nothing to differentiate them to a large degree.

Some Costco stores in Bay Area carry Oris watches, I'd check them out.
