On Time &
Under Budget

Despite the contemporary convenience of consulting your phone every time you want to know the time, it is an immutable men's custom to wear a proper wristwatch. The trouble often lies in selecting a quality timepiece that's highly functional and reliable, yet doesn't succumb to trendy clichés that'll banish the thing to the bottom of your valet box by next year. In the spirit of stylish functionality, this summer you can even wear a different watch to suit every setting of your everyday life. These affordable options will ensure that you're never late and with a look that's never out of place.
