For your money, it's hard to find a watch as fashionable and as well-made as the new Timex Waterbury. This affordable timepiece honors Timex's 160+ years in the watchmaking industry with its vintage-inspired design.

Its steel case measures in at a conservative 40mm — hitting the sweet spot between too big and too small. The sword-shaped hour and minute hands, orange-tipped seconds hand, and a highly legible face result in a handsome watch that’s easy to read at a glance. It’s covered in subtly curved mineral glass, further adding to the vintage look. You also get luminescent paint on the hands, INDIGLO backlighting, a date display, and a reliable quartz movement to boot. The Waterbury comes on a genuine leather band with buckle closure that only gets better with age.

With a solid feature set, vintage aesthetic, and a sub-$100 street price, you'll be wondering why you haven't picked one up sooner.
