Spec me a smart watch for under £40

I call on the watch lovers of ocuk to help me find a smart watch for my sisters wedding next weekend.

I have a pulsar that I bought a couple of months ago and today I wore it for the first time as I finally got around to adjusting the strap. It looked cheap and nasty on me. I am no watch master of how things should look but in the pub I actually had to take the thing off! Purely because it screams cheap and corny with it's gold painted metal.

So the challenge I need a smart watch for £40 max.. a tall order but lets see what you watch freaks can come up with

What's your style/definition of smart?

I quite like large faced watches and have a preference to strap watches but don't mind too much if it is bracelet.

At some point in the past M&S were doing cheap dress watches. They looked a little old fashioned (intentionally) and were quite basic. I think they were a tenner a pop, I have no idea if it's a line they kept going.

You could try trawling the bay to find something?

Cheap Seiko or a Digital Casio in brushed metal.
