Having lost my watch several weeks ago and not being able to find it anywhere since I think it's about time I give up and buy another.
(Citizen BL5260-76E. I wouldn't mind another...)
Last one was a citizen and I quite like the styling of some of them so I have been looking on ebay at a few.

Not looking to spend an awful lot as it will likely be scratched or covered in grease and oil. Much like the last one rolleyes
What second hand watch do you suggest for sub £100? Can be any brand, citizen, seiko etc.

I'd prefer it to have a metal link wrist strap, not too large and bulky and not too heavy.

Or ebay for a 2nd hand Seiko Monster/Diver

Thanks for the recommendation, not too much a fan of the chunky-ness of the watch, was looking at this one http://www.hsamuel.co.uk/webstore/d/2308479/citize...

With those needs and that budget I would be looking at a classic style Casio g shock. With radio control. It will be comfy, durable, accurate, waterproof, and cheap.

I think mine was about 60.

Seiko 5, get a nice strap for it and probably get some change too?

Just a quick update, I managed to buy a 3 month old, no wear, no scratches etc looks brand new Citizen AT4008-51E

Was just slightly over my budget but it was a steal!! fairly worn ones have gone for more!!

Just to rub it in I found my watch almost exactly 24hrs after buying the new one.. Down the back of my car seat confused Heard it beeping on a roundabout!

Thanks all
