I want a WHITE watch

Anyone know of a good (cheap) white watch (case and band) maybe ceramic I can find? I have a white gold daytona and a milgauss, so it needs to be a FUN watch. I like the Chanel mens watch but it's WAY to $$$ for what I'm looking for. THANKS!

They do not. I want something a little better than a Swatch. say a 200-500. watch. I do love Swatch, from back in the 80's to now since they were the ones that got the idea to build a car. I have a 2002 Passion cabriolet(got off e bay) AND have a 2008 ordered!

I have a thing for Swiss Army and Glycine. Both make very nice white dial watches. Might cost just a tad over yr. limit, but you'll have a real watch. (not plastic crp....) Larry.

ttommy aka redneck - My reading comprehension has been sliding lately, soon it will just be the Sunday comics...

I agree that an all-white watch in that range will be hard to find. I've often admired the white Chanel also. Happy hunting. Cheers, Larry.

here's one, although the CCCP on it gives me the willies (seriously, no one would ever think to put a swastika on a commercial watch, but CCCP is ok?)

Costs about $180 from shopnbc.

Take a look at the Seiko SKX781 "White Knight"

There are other white dial Seiko models in your price range. Good Luck

I think the combination of white, white, white and $500 gives you the "fashion" design midsize watches.

A good watch is not to be found among them.

I would also recommend one of the higher end swatch watches. They come in all sorts of funky colours.

OK forum readers, to wrap this search up, go to say ,a Chanel link and PLEASE look at the J12 in WHITE. Then you will see what I am after. Does not have to be exactly like this, but I want you to see the combination I am searching for. Is it a deal? Now the J12 comes in BLACK as well as WHITE, but I think it is apparent that I am looking for a WHITE WATCH!

Always Seiko!For that amount of money you just can`t get anyhthing better.Their kinetic models are really unique!
And here`s my Divers Automatic.It`s not white face,but it`s really good watch,for fair price of 400 $.
Of course,there are various models with more or less bigger prices than 500$.
Like mine Kinetic Perpetual Auto Relay(around 800$)!

if you like white ceramic, and dont want to put in the price of a chanel, you should consider the NIXON PLAYER white ceramic. i believe its a beaut, they are around 1000 dollars, automatic movement i believe, they company has been only rising since they opened. i think their site is nixonnow.com but if you put some time in ebay you can find them for under a 1000. a friend of mine had one and god it looked great.

hope that could help you
