Recommend to me a watch under $500
 

Never been a watch guy, but I've decided that this is something I should look into making part of my wardrobe. I'm looking for something relatively classy, preferably silver, and I want to know if there are any decent brands or models out there that I can get for up to $500... I have no interest in dropping $3,000 on a premium one.

Invicta 8926. You can get it for around 100 bucks on Amazon.

in my humble opinion there is not much difference between a watch that cost $100 from one that cost $500. as far as watches go there is no glory in this range. NT suggested Invecta those are goodlooking for cheap watches. Pretty much they are all the same, they are cheap watches. Seiko, Casio, Fossil, Kenneth Cole. Check out overstocked dot com. They have good deals on these types of watches.

Swiss Army watches are nice, and most are in the $200-500 range.

I like my Kenneth Cole watch. It was cheap ($150 or so I think) and it does not look cheap. I like the one I have more than the current ones listed on the site, but after a cursory glance the current ones don't look too bad.

If you are willing to spend even a little bit more, take a look at Baume et Mercier watches. Great watches, much better looking and their "low-end" is probably just over your range on Overstock or a like site.

Just for kicks, you should consider going vintage. You can some great vintage watches on ebay, and they are often classy, fun, and good conversation starters. I'm talking 60's vintage, not pocket watch vintage.
