Here is a Seiko (Jap Quartz) I like and it looks like it can be found under $100.
I would prolly change the band if possible, but I really like the watch.

You should be able to get a bracelet with endlinks for that watch.

I like to do it the other way around; buy watch with a bracelet and then buy a strap.

I love my Seiko's and Citizen's. I think dollar for dollar, you cannot get a better watch.

Nice watch by the way...

Yeh. I'll see. I can always replace the band though. I think they make the same watch with a metal bracelet instead

I love the look of this watch but I don't have big enough arms/wrists to pull it off.
