I know you guys must get asked this 100 times a day but..

..which watch..

My spec as it were is:

Stainless steel strap
black face
Reasonable size face

I LOVE the tag carerra, but, unfortunatly, i cant justify spending that money at the moment, but that is the design i was looking at. I have found a police watch:

or

But i'm not sure if the face is going to be really tiny and then look a bit funny? I'd say mu budget is £300..

I also quite like these:

But i am open to suggestions

Thanks in advance!

I think that both the police watches are ok but a rip off of the Chanel design and would never wear a Chanel watch. Out of the two i prefer the silver one.

The yellow faced watch looks very different and quite cool, i think i'd get sick of its garishness though. I've got a black metal watch and once the novelty wares off they can look dull.
If you interested in a black metal watch you can't do much better than this for your budget, automatic (sweeping) movement and red second had will look really good.

Have a look at this, swiss (quartz) chrono movement and sapphire crystal glass gives a timeless quality look.

A hell of alot of watch for the money. Automatic movement, 200m water resistant, the bracelet looks high quality aswell.

Something a bit different that looks good, auto again.

Can recommend the Christopher Ward watch. I have one that I wear most days as my beater type watch. It takes it all, it been knocked so many times and hasnt marked at all. Strap is top quality and the whole watch has a feeling of toughness. I'm not sure quite how he sells them so cheap but I can't think of many others that give quality for that price.
