Sup guys,

I need a watch for work since they don't allow us to have cellphones on our person, I need a way to tell time.  I like big watches (not obnoxiously large), something that looks like a Breitling, or a pilot watch, basically a metal band and has a lot of detail on the face (numbers, dials, adjustment knobs, etc.).

 I am completely lost, never really been in the market for a watch since they are becoming obsolete. 

I am on a budget of about $300.  NT please help.  Any help is greatly appreciated.  (links and/or model numbers would be fantastic!)

^was going to recommend that as well.  I bet you can get one on sale for $80.

That said, just pick something cheap.  People who spend more than 100 on a watch want it as jewelry.
 
Best place is the Fossil outlet. They sell a lot of brands ie Michael Khors etc

Diesel watches be looking weird as hell man. Everytime I see them I be wondering if anyone really buys those 
 
I'm looking for something that's similar to an Omega Seamaster or Planet Ocean in style, but less than $300 as well.
Found some decent Marc Jacobs and Armani Exchange ones, but nothing that I'm really sold on.
