Cruising Amazon's watch selection, I came across what looks like a strong contender to the Timex Weekender series as an ultra-affordable watch: This Casio MTP1183E-7ACF clocks in around $20, but from all indications would look right at home with a suit:
The leather strap will probably prove stiff and plasticky, but the fit and finish of the case, dial, and hands seem to put the Weekenders to shame. I have a spare brown leather strap, a couple of NATOs, and the mesh-like bracelet from my Weekender escapades to try on it when it arrives. At this price, I couldn't help but try it out. If it's as good in the flesh as it seems on the screen, I may have found my new top recommendation for an ultra-affordable.
