Hi guys
I don't know didly-squat about watches and I would like to purchase one for daily wear at the airport where I work as it will be very useful.
Looking to spend 100 to £150 tops. A 24 hour clock, date display (day of the week would be good too, but not essential), quiet operation, reliability, durability and subtle, understated looks with a very easy-to-read dial are the order of the day for me (Hairy 27 year old, tall, dark and handsome - ok, the first two are true)
I like the look of this one:

Cheaper here:

However, I couldn't find anywhere on the high street that sells it.
Others I have seen:

Or, I could go a lot cheaper with one of these well known brands:

Just throwing this out to you guys. Any tips?
Thank you
