looking for something a bit more dressy, well, the wife is for my birthday. Her budget is around £200 and i'm drawn to watches like this:

This one is a bit too expensive, so do you guys have any recommendations. My Seiko divers watch I got from Creation Watches is a bit too much and I'd prefer something a bit more sedate and less flashy.

£123 - 50m water resist, automatic movement and retro-awesome.

What's not to like?

I really like the Nixon Sentry watches. They do leather strapped versions [url= http://www.nixon.com/uk/en/product/sentry-leather-A105.html ]here[/url] and metal strapped versions [url= http://www.nixon.com/uk/en/product/sentry-ss-A356.html ]here[/url]. Both falling nicely under the £200 budget.

I've had my Nixon now for 4 years and love it. When it needs changing or I want another watch I'll most likely get one of the one's mentioned. I find watches quite a personnel thing so it's difficult to recommend something without knowing you. This is my idea of a nice watch in your budget and there will be loads of watches to choose from. Look forward to finding out what you get.

Oh and Happy Birthday for whenever it is 🙂

You can get a Christopher Ward C5 Malvern Quartz for £199? Can you not get a cheaper Seiko Quartz that looks identical to the one in first post?
