8 Best Mens Watches for Everyday Carry on Sale
Timex Weekender
The Weekender line is one of Timex’s most popular for a reason. They’re inexpensive, come in nearly every possible color combination, and work well for both semi-formal and casual wear (for the weekends, hence the name). The minimalist design is easy to read at a glance and the slip-through strap lets you customize the Weekender to match your EDC.
Citizen Eco-Drive Avion AW1361 Brown Leather
Citizen’s vintage aviation-inspired Avion timepiece is not all looks. It has an impressive spec sheet, especially at this price. Its large, legible dial has both minute and hour markings, which makes telling the time that much easier. The Avion’s stainless steel case measures in at 45mm, giving it a bold wrist presence. No need to worry about batteries, as the Avion powers itself from the sun with the Eco-Drive technology.
Timex Expedition Field Chronograph
At first glance the Timex Expedition Field Chronograph may look busy. Once you know how to use a chronograph, you’ll appreciate the extra dials. Each subdial tracks hours, minutes, and seconds — great for timing everything from the length of a run to how long a meal has left in the oven. The blacked out stainless steel case will pair nicely with a variety of straps, making it a versatile EDC watch.
Citizen Eco-Drive Titanium BM7170-53L
The barrier to entry for a titanium watch that has a sapphire crystal is usually around $450. The Citizen BM7170-53L breaks the mold, coming in at less than half of that. This handsome everyday watch has an Eco-Drive movement, 100m of water resistance, and date display window. You’ll also find luminescent paint on the hands and indices that really pop against the dark blue dial.
Timex Expedition Scout 40
If you’re looking for a simple everyday watch, consider the Timex Expedition Scout. This easy-wearing field watch measures in at 40mm—right in the sweet spot for most wrists. It has several military-inspired details like the Arabic hour and 24-hour time scales, low-vis black coating, and OD green leather strap. The Scout also has INDIGLO nightlight technology that makes it easy to read, no matter what the conditions.
Citizen Eco-Drive BM8475-00F Military
With a completely blacked-out aesthetic, the Citizen BM8475-00F Military watch is the perfect addition to any murdered-out EDC. But don’t let the lack of color fool you—under the stealthy coat of paint lies a readable face, day and date window, and 100 meters of water resistance. And the best part: its Eco-Drive movement charges the watch from simply wearing it, making it a great everyday watch you never have to worry about.
Timex Easy Reader
One of the best reasons to wear a watch is to be able to tell the time and date with a simple turn of the wrist, rather than having to take out your phone and turn it on. With large numerals on an uncomplicated face, the Timex Easy Reader lives up to its name as a no-frills way to keep track of the time. It comes in a few classic designs and color combinations to best match your outfit and EDC, and INDIGLO technology keeps it readable even at night.
Samsung Gear S3
At first glance, you couldn’t tell from a distance that the Samsung Gear S3 was a smart watch. Thanks to an always-on display, its timekeeping and apps are immediately ready to use. Its steel bezel can be rotated to access the S3’s apps, which include text, call, and other notifications from your phone via a Bluetooth connection. A built-in health app uses the S3’s GPS and other sensors to track your activities, and its military-grade construction and long battery life ensure the watch can keep up with all of them.
