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.

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.

LOL - should that watch have WHITE hands and WHITE number markers as well??? It would be a "stealth" watch then!

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 |
