looking for a watch to buy, have a budget of £500. only one i have seen so far is the red arrows edition citizen watch that i like but i want to have a look at some other options, i am open to the idea of preowned as well i generally like quiet chunky watches and it needs to be a metal bracelet as i seem to snap leather ones.
Lots of Citizens and Seikos to choose from in that budget.
Some astute shopping will find you a quartz Longines Hydroconquest (or maybe a used Automatic).
Many Christian Wards fall in this price range new (as do, to be honest, lots of other watches).
The Citizen Red Arrows is quite a complex watch (if it's the Skyhawk you mean). Tissot make the T-Touch range which feature a combination of analogue and digital with a touch sensitive crystal, rather cool (I think) and some will be in budget new (and all used).

As ever this is going to be like finding a needle in a haystack. How about these for starters?
