In the market for a cheap watch.
My Criteria:
1. Reliable and Durable- this will be a watch I wear all the time. I want it to be able to uphold a little use- borderline on abuse
2. Have to be able to get it wet. At least wear it in the rain, preferably in the shower/ocean/pool.
3. Good Lum in dark
4. And almost as important as number one- impressive looking. Should be an eye catcher without being Gaudy.
5. Able to wear with anything, except maybe a suit.
6. Finally, around $60
I've attaches link to a photo bucket album with pictures. I realize they are all "homages" of more expensive/better watches but that is not a concern to me as long as they are not replicas.

My options:
Alpha Explorer I
Alpha Speedmaster
Invicta 5017 Diver (or Comparable Alpha)
Herc Pan. Homage.
