Thinking of getting a new watch since all my current ones are either metal or black rubber/leather. I want something colorful (light blue, yellow, red, etc). It can be either analog, digital, or both. I want something with a thick strap and a semi large watch body; something similar to the one in the picture. Also, very important: needs to tell me the "seconds" so I can use it for my job. Any suggestions? If not, I'll probably end up just buying this one.
Thanks
(Also, trying not to spend too much on it so something below $150 would be great)
Nevermind KR3W.. Leaning towards KC 1507 (rectangular) but we'll see on Monday.

Let go of your view of time, there is only day and night, and you won't need a watch.

Lol...Don't hate. Also, I need a watch for school/work. Some tasks at my job rely heavily on measuring rate and duration.
Also, thanks for the suggestion ring but I'll pass on G-Shocks. I've been using black/metal casual watches since grade school so I want something neat and different.

Someone let me know when the last time a watch got them layed or considered cool, last time I checked it was never... So really doesn't matter what the hell it looks like, but that it does what it is supposed to do and does it well.
True story:
Once I had a piece of dog shit on my watch... nobody even noticed... the whole day, was like man what's that smell... is it this hamburger? nope... oh well... later when I was licking the ketchup off my watch I realized the poop was on there... Nobody notices a damn watch anymore..

There's a difference between a watch and a shoe-box sized yellow brick tied to your wrist...
That said... I do like colorful straps so I was going to recommend: Timex

That huge yellow watch wont get you laid but it will definitely get you noticed in a wacky 3 inch thick glasses with a bow tie and pocket protector kinda way. Ohoeee! Ohoeee!

I think I can sport it lol. Sorry but I'm not buying a watch to get into someone's snatch (and I doubt that any sane person does). I'm buying it because I know it'll look pretty good on me and because I want one. Besides, it's not like I'm planning to wear it with a suit lol.
I'm buying it for me, not for anyone else
Thanks for the suggestions, keep them coming.
@Gaige: I work at the hospital for 3 days a week. I can't use my cellphone as a substitute for a water-resistant watch.
I already have professional looking watches lol. But thanks for the suggestion.
I'd lay off the passive assholeness if I were you.
Anyway, gnight.

This. Although I think I got the concept of sleeping and night and up at day backwards.

very nice watch. I was looking for these types but it seems like not too many available in our area with similar designs as this. I got bored of professional looking watch nand they are kinda heavy. I need alternate watch for casual occasions.

I have to agree. that sh!t is for kids. it's oke when you're 12 or something, but not now.
I got this Gucci one, though I never wear it. But I think it's better than the yellow one. Maybe you'll like it too. It's quite expensive though.

Hmmm ok. I'm still gonna get it unless I find a good alternative. I'm not gonna explain myself again :p
That Gucci watch looks sweet but it's a bit too pricey. And I want something different than the regular classy black ones.

Love it.
Take it.
Take 6 other colors with it for every day of the week. (I keep forgetting the days xD) I want that one, at least in white. Website where I could order it or something?
But those Nookas are also so well awesome. They have great sunglasses to boot.
