6 of the Best Watches Under £250

So, you’re looking for a new watch, but like so many of us, you haven’t exactly got the dough to be dropping notes on a Rolex or a Breitling. Life’s unfair sometimes, isn’t it? Yes, life IS unfair sometimes but it also has its own little ways of making up for things. For example, if you thought you’d have to drop several grand to get a high quality timepiece then you were mistaken because in fact you don’t even have to spend anywhere close to that. If you know where to look you can pick up a quality, stylish watch to suit any taste for shy of £250. To save you the hassle, we’ve done the legwork for you and put together a list of our favourites.

Timex Weekender Chronograph

It’s hard to go wrong with Timex, but the Weekender Chrono is definitely one of their better-looking designs. What’s more is that it’s an absolute steal. The build quality is phenomenal for this price point and it even features Timex’s Indiglo lighting system. You’d be extremely hard pushed to find a better watch for under £100. 

Price:£79.99

MWC Auto Submariner

MWC are one of the leading suppliers of watches to the military and police forces, so you can bet that their products are pretty robust. The Auto Submariner is a diving inspired timepiece that gives a nod to one of Rolex’s most iconic designs. It’s nicely finished off with the modern addition of a tricolour NATO strap.

Price: £175

Larsson & Jennings Chain Classic

The Larsson & Jennings Chain Classic is admittedly at the upper end of this price bracket, but there’s no denying that it’s a pretty handsome looking watch. If you’re a fan of the classic round-faced timepiece but prefer a bracelet to a strap then this is exactly what you’re looking for. 

Price:£225

Briston Clubmaster Sport

A square bezel and a body made from polished Italian acetate really set the Briston Clubmaster Sport apart from the crowd. All of this paired with a canvas sports strap allows this watch to bridge the gap between classic and modern seamlessly. 

Price:£175
