CORRECTION: The Orient Capital V2 is 40.5mm (not 43mm). It's a good alternative to the Bambino if you want a quartz watch or something a little cheaper. My top picks are: Seiko SNK809 - amzn.to/3cq4fyH Orient Bambino V2 - amzn.to/2yROqlz Casio F-84W - amzn.to/2RvOhL1

Brock, great video. Any thoughts on the watch website 49under.com? I’ve gotten a few great pieces there and the story with them is that all of their watches are under $50.

Yes this is the perfect video for me!

I can not believe how helpful this video was! As a guy with smaller wrists, it is a pain to find well fitting watches

I always love your videos, though I have to admit, I thought I knew all the budget watch options, so I wasn’t really that excited about this video going in. I knew probably 80-90% of these, but you had several that I have genuinely never heard of that I’m excited to check out. Thanks for a great video as always!

Finally, a simple but comprehensive video making it easy and approachable for us first-time buyers. Much appreciated!

I am a woman who likes to dress slightly androgynous and I've been rocking a cheap battery-powered watch for years and am finally able to afford a "nicer" automatic watch and your suggestions helped a lot.

Thank you, sir!

I watched your video for the 1st time today. Great information!

Another recommendation for the Dress Watches category: CASIO LTP-E148 Series. Great price, very slick look. Been using it over a year now.

Very nice 'everyman' video. Picked up a Timex Weekender last year and it gets regular rotation with my casual wear.

Hello Brock, just discovered your channel through this specific selection. Very well done, decent and honest explanations with empathy and sympathy. Thank you and regards from Belgium 🇧🇪

This is better than videos by actual watch channels. Good Job.

Great video! I love this history and all the details with each of the watches 🙌🏽

Awesome audio quality. You can hear a difference compared to other menswear channels.

My Man, what a video!!! Simply amazing Brock.

Superb video! That's what I was waiting for. 👍🏻

For the dress watch category here are a few great watches that are just beyond $100. Seiko SUP880 - it's a retagular watch that's a homage to the Cartier Tank (basically, if you're looking for a budget tank - this is the way to go.) Timex Marlin 34mm - this one is almost $200 but you can often find it on sale bringing it down to around $130 - $150. Great size, slides under the cuff easily and it's very unique looking.

Right now I’m rocking a Timex Fairfield and a Casio Duro. I’ve got a Casio World Time and a Armitron for the gym as well.

Great video 👍 My face lit up when I saw the Casio World Timer which incidentally I happen to wear right now. Amazing watch, has a lot of features and has a *10 year Battery* which is just insane for its price.

Solid choices! Really nicely executed video too. I bet this will end up bringing a whole bunch of new enthusiasts to the watch world :)

Great list. I have friends who will pay for a luxury watch in installments but they drive, like a Toyota. I'll never understand adding a debt to show off the money you don't have

I wear the Casio Resin when I’m headed to the store or running quick errands. It humbles me. It reminds me that a 10 dollar watch can still look amazing and classy.

Bertucci is great, I got the a2 titanium ver. The solid bars integrated into the case is really nice.

This is a great video! Thanks for providing great content!

Enjoyed your presentation!

Great perspective. You nailed it.

I have a 6 1/4" wrist and the G-Shock square wears just fine. Because it's rectangular it wears smaller than the maximum diameter suggests. The Vostok Amphibia may be a little left field for most but it's also incredible value!

My kind of list. Good job

I think Tommy are amazing. Only cost me $50 and been wearing it for over a year and it’s clean and working!

Definitely have the Casio one... great for everyday purpose and don’t mind getting it beat...

great info: thankyou

Great recommendations. The Orient Tristar line are probably the greatest sleeper automatic dress/sports watches on the planet. The Bulova "96" line are watches a man can wear in the most formal setting, and as a bonus you can grab it and go without the need to set it. Yay quartz!

I'm very pleasantly surprised. Many lifestyle and fashion channels make a fool of themselves when talking about watches, but this list could as well be from a designated watch channel, everything important is here. The only things in that price range which were not included are vintage pieces and Chinese specials, but those are arguably more niche anyways.

Female viewer here but I love the offerings in this list. First watch I bought for myself was the Timex Weekender Chrono. I used it everyday for the last 6+ yrs for work (leather strap), off grid adventures but not in water (nato strap), and during a construction volunteer work in Nepal. Pretty lifeproof from my experience. My 2nd is the 5600BB and I recently got the F91w gold variant. Just need an automatic dressy watch to complete my watch needs. Gonna check the SNK809 or the Bambino. Thanks! P.S. Tiny wrist here at 5.5 ish

👍👍👍 finally. Good content! Thanks. Love the Orient.

I love your voice man! It's just so soothing

Great job. You definitely know the watch market. The Bambino is awesome.

Great suggestions! Thanks.

Great video Brock! Thank you for your content brother!

10 seconds in and i gotta say i love the audio quality

Great content Brock! For me anything more than 100 dollars seems too much for my budget. This was really helpful. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

All really excellent choices Brock, you can’t go wrong with any of them. I have several of the ones you mention including the Swatch once again which is a great watch. I regularly swim with it as it’s easy to read in the water and so light it does not affect swimming. It also shows the 30mm is indeed enough for swimming, heck, I’ve dived off diving boards and slid down water slide with it on and it’s never let in a drop! It’s also the watch Pope Francis wears daily.

Thanks for the info, very helpful.

Timex Fairfield FTW! Such a beautiful minimalist watch, at an extremely affordable price 👍🏾 Fantastic video, thanks MM.

Great video. I might have reached a point you probably did not consider at first. Living in a country where the exchange rate to the US dollar is 1 to 6, and earning in such a currency, keeping attention to the ratio cost-value is paramount. Keep up the excellent work. Thank you.

I’m wearing a G Shock as we speak and I ordered my first Seiko and automatic watch today. Cheers.

I am buying the timex Fairfield 41 in black/cream is so exited to get it

Seiko SNKE87, I got it for only less than 90USD in Singapore in 2018. Love its aethetics!

Men's DW290-1V "Classic" Sport Watch Is a must on my list.

Great list. Thank you.

For me my favorite field watch is the lorus titanium. Lorus is owned by seiko and their 37mm field watch is only 6mm thick and the case is made from titanium. $78. For dress watch, it is Citizen NH8350 series watches. Better looking than the bambino with a much quieter automatic movement (8200 caliber inhouse). $99 Minimalist watch, most likely the Bering 13242-507. Sleek minimalist chronograph with blue sunburst dial and silver secondary dials and Sapphire glass. $100.

Wicked list mate.👍 more watch vids pls.

this made my day.

Great list!

Watching youtube watches channels increases the number of my watches...tempting

I came across this video because I want to gift my boyfriend a watch that will walk with him to success and will make him feel elegant. Thanks to you I have learned so much about watches. Thank you for making this video. I don't know whether to choose a Seiko Neo Classic, Seiko 5 Automatic, or an Orient Tri Star.

Agreed!

I recommend a Casio analogue watch which is stainless steel has a black dial and Roman numerals and that is the Casio MTP-1377D-1AVEF. It is 40mm with a depth of 10mm and comes on a stainless steel bracelet and has a water resistance of 100M. I purchased mine on Amazon UK for only £29.99 so it is well below the $100 and indeed well below $50. I love the watch, it's good quality and very wearable with almost anything. You can't go wrong with this watch. I also recommend the Casio 5610 G-Shock which if you shop around may be able to get one below $100. It is solar powered and has multiband 6 with 200M water resistance and is more wearable than the 5600 and has everything you need in a watch, I have two of them, the all black version and the standard one with the positive display, they are great rugged watches which you can expect from a G-Shock without it being too bulky on the wrist.

Keep the great content going Sir💪🏿 Peace from the DMV👍🏿

I have just got myself a 41mm Timex Fairfield with Nylon Strap. Thanks, Brock.

That was awesome.

Very good review , you seem to have covered most of the bases .

Thumbs up for mixing it up between automatics and quartz movements. This is a good list but I would add fliegers/pilot watches to this list.

I just subscribed Because you have a kick ass channel and I like your kick ass attitude towards the average guy buying a watch in this episode well done

I have the orient tri star. Wonderful watch.

I have an SNK. Love it. I'm thinking about changing the dial because I'm not crazy about the Flieger 2 style.

I liked them all!!

I would also personally recommend the AVI-8 Hawker Hurricane. 43mm x 10mm Flieger for those with a bit bigger wrist on a budget. The automatic variants do peak well above $100 USD, but the quartz flavours are just under $80 USD as of 5/2/20. On another note, I'm glad to see the Casio Duro make the cut! Phenomenal watch for the price point, and I like the Duro a tad better than my own Invicta Pro Diver 8928OB (with the key difference being my $60ish Pro Diver having a Seiko NH35A automatic movement).

Good style and taste does not have to be to pricey, these brands are the best.

Gotta love my Casio World Timer

Great list, I agree with almost all your picks ;)

Great list of watches. I have eyed three of them for future purposes.

I have had the Seiko SNE093 for about close to six years now and it's still working great. Just like any other solar watch within that price range, you have to keep it in some kind of light, if not it'll stop working after a while.

this is exactly the video i needed, definetly picking up a few of this options! thanks

Great video. And an, is this dude pleasant to listen to. Great job

I just purchased a Casio Royal watch with a stainless steel strap for £30 in England It’s not bad for the money I’ve not owed a Casio for twenty years. Hope you are well and self isolating safe from the coronavirus. Please keep the videos coming.

Hey man I really liked your video. I just bought two watches from your list: the casio f-84w and the Orient Capital V2. I should be getting them by the end of the week, hopefully.....really excited to try out these watches

If you get a duro change the band to metal, it’s super nice that way.

Nice video and I’ve seen a best watches for $25 video from one of your rivals on KZread RMRS most of them were Casio and Timex.

Can you make a video on what to wear with each of these watches? I never know what should be worm with a metal watch vs leather watch band.
