My favourite watches are cheap Casios. They tend to last around 5 years or more and keep their time. I wear mine 24/7, never take it off, feel naked without a watch, so may need to replace a strap or two over time.

Here's my latest, had it a year or two, set the time to the BBC pips at the time of purchase. Double check it every time I hear the pips, it's only 12 seconds slow today. That's close enough for me as I don't work for NASA deciding trajectories of space probes.

Battery is guaranteed 10 years, I guess only a nuclear war will kill it... Err, yes, I'm in the pub!

Keep an eye on the ae1200 Casio royale on Amazon. Prices occasionally drop to just under £20 but even going above that it's a well featured watch for the money.

It's the watch's standard strap. Rare model sold in the UAE I vaguely recall.

This is my MRW200H - £15 quid on Amazon, so under budget even with the cheap Chinese zulu strap:
