I got this MVMT watch for my birthday last year, (can already guess that a lot of you won't like the brand) and I like it, but it's kinda small and I'm now realizing that it doesn't feel/look like it "fits" with most outfits. I like the idea of wearing a watch, and recently have been looking into the whole watch world, and I find it interesting.

Any recommendations for a pretty affordable everyday watch that looks nice and also goes with casualish clothes? Thanks for any comments.

Consider simply getting a new strap

How would I know the strap would fit/work with the watch?

Well, at least you didn't buy it yourself lol - it was a gift, can't fault you for that.

What's your current budget range? Depending on the range there could be a lot of good options.

I think this looks fine, in that price range you’re not opening yourself up to much. Save the money.

Casio Duro: Lots of color options and is about $50 USD

I’ll be honest, this is the first MVMT watch that i actually really like the design. I like the looks of it quite a bit. If it were me in the $150 range I’d probably pick up a Vostok automatic watch. It’s kind of a quirky russian brand but they’re pretty cool and you can find them on Amazon under $150. Like the amphibian on a bracelet, then you can get some cheap natos to swap out / change the look.

TISSOT Couturier Automatic Black Dial $299.00 at Jomashop currently (Black Friday sale)

This watch will grow with you as you enter the professional world.

Normally I'd say this is a great suggestion, but even its sale price is triple OP's current budget and double OP's post-holiday budget.

I’ll keep that in mind for a bit in the future, thanks. I like that one a lot

I would also suggest looking at Fossil watches. I have a few quartz watches that are great every day type. Plenty to choose from for around $100 or less like you mentioned. Saw a few different styles on Amazon.

I hope someone here convinces him to get a gaudy invicta so it’s like a watch world double whammy
