Which watch-£200

After a classic looking watch.

not digital
not with lots of dials

around £200 from a decent watch brand.

EDIT:
what about this...
1950's Omega Speedmaster Manaul.
It's classic, it looks simple and stylish.
THOUGHTS?

Better to work out exactly and in detail what your requirement might be then then see what is available at all prices. You might be able to save yourself a bit of money.

For what it is worth I have a ROTARY analogue face battery driven watch which is accurate to seconds a week. I bought it for about £70 back in about 1982 in York. Apart from a few new batteries, and a clean when the time/date changing winder gets a bit stiff (every 10 years or so) it has been a superb purchase. Only little problem is the clasp for the wrist strap is getting a bit loose.
 
I was recently looking for a watch in this price range too. I needed something to wear at work everyday that was fairly tough as I work on a construction site. I ended up going for a Seiko 5. In this price range Seiko are second to none in my opinion. Theyve been making decent watches with decent automatic movements for years. Im not sure if they are available in the UK but Heres a couple of pics. The watch is more gun metal grey than black but theres plenty of styles available if you dont like the diver style watches or the dark metal colours.
