Here are a few that are what some of us would call beaters. But not bad watches. I had this one and I litterly beat the heck out of it for about 2 years till it quit working this last Spring. http://www.bluedial.com/BM8180-03E.htm Here is another option that I have thought about snaging just to have another beater of this style. 2 options. http://www.bluedial.com/BM6400-00E.htm http://www.bluedial.com/BM6400-51E.htm |

I went on the kohls website and saw a wenger pilot style watch for around $ 123.00 or so I was just wondering if you think that was a good deal.:) |

You could also try a germasian(german brand chinese origins) brand like Trias, but you cannot go wrong with the Seiko or Citizen |

I like it but the dial is just to over the top I was thinking something that looks like a IWC with out spending $5,000 to $10,000 dollars. |

I'm sure you must have something in mind as their are numerous choices for the style but your price range really limits your choices.  Here's the Seiko flieger. Available in a variety of colors. |

I would look for a used Zeno, or a great deal on a new one. Last edited on Sun Aug 24th, 2008 02:07 pm by Watchit |

I'd go for one of the Citizen Eco Drive watches like Skipdawg recommended. Nice grab and go quartz movement, never need a battery. A nice carefree watch, IMO. |

So, that's a flieger dial? I have a watch with that dial, like it, but never knew what it was called. I learn something every day here. I like the loks of that Seiko pictured above. |

Junkers has some nice-looking quartzies. Economical too. http://www.longislandwatch.com/Junkers_Page-2.htm |
