When it comes to watches there are varied opinions as to what is expensive and what is not expensive. Some people might consider $100 expensive for a watch while others might see anything under $500 as cheap.
A watch is something that almost everyone uses. Some people like to pay a lot for their watch while others will settle for something practical that will keep accurate time. Most people, when shopping for a watch usually try to find a bargain. But sometimes finding a bargain might not be a bargain at all if the item is of poor quality.
What to look for in a budget priced watch:
Durability and Craftsmanship
Durability is something that will make every purchase worth the money. No one intentionally invests in something that they know will not last for a good deal of time. A watch may look nice but it could be lacking in craftsmanship. This is especially important if you are looking for a watch that you will use everyday.
Brand Name
When looking for a quality watch on a budget its probably best to stick with a well known brand name, such as Timex or Citizen (just to name a couple). Most well known watchmakers will want to make sure they keep their reputation of producing quality products.
What not to look for in a budget priced watch:
Rock bottom prices
Stay away from watches that are very cheaply priced if you want something that will last for any length of time. While advertisements may guarantee the lowest price, that is probably the only guarantee you will have.
Designer Labels
Gucci, Yves St Laurent are not generally known for producing budget watches, So this would not be the first category you would want to explore if you are looking for a budget priced watch. However, some designers have been known to introduce a line of watches with a lower price tag just to attract a different type of customer.
Jewelry watches
Watches that have been crafted with precious stones are definitely not considered to be budget priced watches. So, if you are not looking to spend a lot of money this is not the category you want to spend your time looking into unless you just want to browse them for fun.
Whatever your budget is, taking time to learn something about the product brand before purchasing is always a good idea. It can save you frustration and disappointment in the long run. There is nothing more satisfying than knowing that you invested your money (no matter how little) in a quality product.
