| My watch has stopped. Looking for something under $100. Anybody happy with what they have in this price range? |
I had one similar to this that I really liked. Sadly, I dropped it and broke the face.  Not sure how much it costs.

keep you eye on ChronoShark and InvictaShark
even though the TagHeuer is $839, they always have good deals |
might be able to find some kind of seiko as well, they both have served me well

In before the multitudes of cries of "G-SHOCK" Good tough watch for the money. I don't have one, but have been tempted. I just can't get over how ugly the G shock is. I always thought so too, but some of the new variations are much nicer looking. It's just a personal thing, but i can't stand a plastic watch. I sa a nice one on Chronoshark a while back, it's about due to make another appearance. I might pick it up since I busted the crystal on my daily work watch, a Bullova Caravelle chrono. I was asking for trouble, doing QC work for precast concrete with it on. |

Saw this over on 6mmBR.com . I'm going to pick one up.

Link no good. |

Looks sharp. Any ideas on best place to buy a g-shock.

| For $25 you can get a timex ironman 30-lap that stands a pretty good chance of lasting long enough for you to get sick of looking at it. They're what I wear when I don't want my better daily watches stolen or broken. If I didn't care about watches in general, they're what I'd wear all the time. |

For dirt cheap, and dead balls reliable... it's tough to beat a Timex. |

You can routinely get seiko autos under $100.
Or, go the digital route like many posters here, then get some short sleeve dress shirts and a bobble head of yourself on your desk
