Mosh pit ate my watch

Judgeneo · 14 Jul 2011 at 21:17

So I spent the last weekend at sonisphere, had an great time, met up with some of you guys, didn't sober up until Tuesday etc...
However I lost my watch in a metallica pit, I think it just flew of when I got a little energetic, and I feel utterly lost without one (hopefully it did some damage to someone to make me feel better

)

So now I need a new everyday watch, and ask the gentlemen of OCUK to help me out.
Nothing too flashy, analogue face, no digital bits, metallic strap, fairly cheap. I think I'll be getting a posh one for my 21st so this is really just for day to day use, absolute top end would be £60, but I'm looking really to spend less than that.

Just had a quick look around and saw this:

(pretty sure they're not a competitor)

Any other advice?

I think this is maybe more like it.

Not a fan of that one myself Judgeneo.

I know it's nothing like what you've described, but this is clearly the perfect opportunity for you to discover the great piece of engineering that is the Casio Illuminator.

Seriously, they're cool now.

I think the cheap neon cased digital watches are quite fun.
