Do any of you guys know much about watches?
I want a mechanical, classy looking watch from a respectable manufacturer. These are two of the watches I already own so you can kind of get an idea of what I like.

I don’t really care about the shape or color of the face, but I’d prefer circular with a black or white face. I’d also like to keep it under $300. I’m kind of a snob when it comes to watches despite my modest price range here :/

Have any good suggestions? Post them here and if you show me something I like – you win.

Anyway I hope you don’t have eBay-phobia or whatever it is that makes people fear eBay.. Because that’s just silly.
