Might you be able to suggest a few manufacturers, or watches in
particular that are of higher quality and fits in one or both of the two
above solutions?

I'm in the market for a new watch since i declared my last one dead
several months ago. (i check the time on my pager currently.)  I want
something to wear everyday, and i wear jeans and polo's to work, so
nothing all too fancy looking. Basically, i want a solid watch for
everyday wear.  My budget depends on if i find something i really like
or not, but i'm also not a millionaire.
