My grandfather turned 99 last week. He's worn a F-91W for almost three and a half decades. He claims it's the same watch. We have doubts, but It was time for an upgrade in any event so for his birthday we gave him an A18WG, which is the gold(tone) version. He's not too keen about the bracelet clasp, but he's vowed to outlive the battery.

This is one of the many reasons why I enjoy this channel. You cover watches from every part of the price spectrum with equal enthusiasm and quality reviews! Much appreciated and very well done!🥃

I work in construction so no fancy watches everyday for me.
The sub $100 is king, I love my low end Casios, Seikos & Timex.
I bought them thinking they're affordable to replace if I break it, but so far they're all holding up great ❤️

The Casio Royale for around $24 USD is another great choice! Functionality wise, it can't be beat for the price and it looks very cool!!

Casio Duro with its 200m water resistance & screw down crown, and it's a total strap monster too. I'm surprised it didn't make this video

Andrew, I have the yellow Bluetooth Casioak. For people like me who are visually disabled the connectivity is a Godsend, being g able to adjust or change settings on your phone where I can see what needs to be changed rather than fiddling with something I can't see. At last I can own a G-Shock, I wish they would make a black one with white luminous indices and a positive display with Bluetooth. I think they'd shift tons of them. Keep up the great work mate.

Okay, I hate the brand, but the Invicta Pro Diver can’t be overlooked. It’s the only invicta that doesn’t look absolutely bonkers and for a mechanical diver that has all the features you want on a dive watch, and for under $100, it can’t be beat!

My favorite is 1/4 of the 100.00 budget. The timex weekender. I once wore it to black tie event with a black nato strap. That's how much I like that budget watch.

I was lucky enough to fly in a two seater Spitfire a couple of years ago. I had a peak at what the pilot was wearing on his wrist… an F-91W. Nothing more to be said

I have the all black Casio Oak and I love it. Knowing what to press to get it to your time zone is another story.

I've just bought a blue dial Baltany Automatic Retro Diver for a shade over £100. It is an absolutely gorgeous watch for the money.

I bought a Seiko SNXS79 at 2AM after the first video you made about it and I wear it just about every time I leave the house. It’s a great looking piece and people always ask me about it.
The only gripe I have with it is the band feels a bit flimsy, but other than that, it’s a great watch.

I just got my gm2100 a couple of weeks ago, and it has been awesome. It's a great watch that's worth the money. I also have seiko 5 that i adore as well. Makes it hard to figure out what i want to put on in the morning.

Casio G-Shock DW-5600. The bog standard G-shock...it has some flaws which I really dislike (recessed A button) and some which were fixed on improved versions of the "Square", but when you hold it, it's just the watch that can stand its ground against abuse, honoured with philosophy which its originator, the DW-5000C pioneered: Being durable and cheap. And it manages to still look good. Not many 1980's designs managed that.

The Seiko 5 SKNX79 is a beautiful watch. They are getting hard to find. There are other Seiko 5's out there, new and vintage, that are just as good as the SKNX79. 
For a cheap watch, I like the ALBA AEFD range. Hardlex crystal, day-date, solar powered, and 100m water resistance. The AEFD range has dress watches, field watches, and steel bracelet models. Alba is Seiko's value brand. I've found the watches online, priced from $50 -$70.

[rayleeaustralia]

That Casioak is great. I went for the full monty. Those solar and Bluetooth version 🙌

[chrispz]

Casio Forerster should definitely get more love. It looks almost like a toy watch but it's pretty reliable, and it is one of those watches you'd have loved as a kid.

[khaagos]

Also, the Orient TriStar is just great, and for less than $100. Better than the Seiko, IMO
Also, nice 5/7 meme at the end

Right in here with this lot is the venerable Timex Ironman Triathlon. It’s got functionality for days with inimitable styling to boot, all at a wallet-friendly price point that makes it a no-brainer addition to your stable. It’s perfect for those times when you need a beater that can handle anything you throw at it. Your higher-end pieces may never show it, but in an anthropomorphic kind of way, they’d have respect for the Ironman, giving it props for being just as much of an icon while looking none the worse and perhaps even all the better for having a bit of wear to show for it.

"That gathers all our old crap and recycles it so we can turn it into new crap" Comedy gold.
