Wanted to start a more modest thread, as I'm slowly getting into watches. I'm all about the interesting/unique looking. Below are some I've recently come across that are definitely on my wish list...no big brands or high end stuff but even on a tight budget I think its its still a fun hobby.

So let's see what you guys are rocking (that's less than $500). This could also help me understand descent brands from cheap knock off stuff...CHEERS!

some great watches here. i'm really feeling the Tissot Couturier. one of the first watches i purchased was a PRC 200. great quality and look for the price.

 

i like browsing in shops for similar watches but never bought
i have a t touch extreme that i recieved from someone i admire on my bday and although it doesnt get as much gym time as my 2 gshocks i love it
liking the coutourier in ur post

 

Here's a Tissot I've had for ages

 

this one looks cool

 

any real life photos of that Casio?

 

all the nixons are gorgeous

 

Most if not all of mine are under $500 and some certainly fall under the unique tag;
