Hey guys (and gals),

I hope this is alright to post here. I put together an article of best watches for $100. There's definitely some good stuff in the sub-100 range, however it was harder than I thought it would be to come up with the list.

I probably should've asked this before I wrote the article, but any thoughts/comments/suggestions you may have? Maybe Seiko? I'm sure I missed some great stuff out there

Those are fashion watches.

In my opinion, you could have bumped the price range up and showcased more significant watches that relate to the companies of this industry.

i.e....Seiko and Hamiltons

Off-topic: Is that your website?

Rotary, Seiko, Citizen, Casio, Invicta - can't go far wrong with any of them

Not sure if I agree with the ones on the list, I don't think fashion brands are really comparable.

I admit it wasn't the easiest article to write, especially at this price range. You're absolutely right though - say at $500 you could get some great pieces including nice Hamiltons and even discounted Oris, and some great Seiko's between $100-$200. I'm looking to put together another article in a higher price range in the near future. Next time around I'll probably exclude all fashion brands.

And yes, it's a website that I started with a friend of mine. Many of us love watches so we're always trying to find something good to write about.

The list looks like a bunch of watches one could go buy at Sears. I would not want any of them.

I would take a NOS watch on Ebay or a nice vintage Tissot, Rado, or similar.
