Looking to get a good starter watch

I like the basic lineup in Citizen's Eco-Drive series. Lots of models to choose from and very well made and never need batteries! I have had Citizen watches for almost 2 decades and never a issue. I think you would be able to find one to fit your lifestyle and taste easily under $150. Here is a link to one retailer that has it for $99! Now I am not connected nor affiliated with Joma......it is just a link to give you an idea what this one model which is a nice wearing whether casual or dress can be had for,

Another vote for the Citizen Eco-Drive - I wear mine daily & as previously mentioned, it works with a tux or with a t-shirt & shorts. I get complimented on it regularly!

 

I have a lot of watches. I get many compliments on my Nixon watches and have been happy with the quality. They have a variety of styles and prices.
