Sometimes all you want from a watch is the time and date in a nice, readable format. Not too fancy, not too cluttered, not too expensive.
Even us gadget freaks get the urge to strap on a simple watch with a clear face sometimes.
Allow me introduce the Citizen BM6400 watches, available with either a canvas strap (BM6400-00E, retail $175) or a bracelet (BM6400-51E, retail $225).

The list of features is as simple as the face of the watch itself:

• Time.
• Date.
• Non-reflective mineral crystal.
• Eco-drive solar powered.
• 200m water resistant (about 650 feet).
• All stainless steel.

I really like the clarity and readability of these watches, and the prices are even lower than retail if you search a bit. An excellent watch for those times when you Just Need A Watch.
