There's some very good prices on a website and they look really nice but I'm very hard on watches... I must flail my limbs more than I realize.

I have a Stuhrling Madman that gets lots of comments. If you just treat it as a quartz watch then there is nothing wrong with it. It's not a high end luxury watch but for something in the $100 range I don't think you'd expect that it would be. Sturhling's look good and many are a decent homage to a number of luxury brands out there.
I don't have any issue with buying cheap watches though and find it quite fun actually. I have some $6 Chinese watches which get as many comments as the Seiko or Breitling. The $6 watches have even stood the test of time and are running after 3 years.
EDIT: I do agree with Table 5 there is a difference between buying a watch made by a long term manufacturer than someone who just uses what parts are available. I'd love to be able to afford the real versions of some of the watches I have but I do get enjoyment out of the cheap ones. (that Citizen above is very nice)
