Oakley Judge from http://shadestation.co.uk/cPath/-2_13/index.php
Prob find them cheaper though if you have search on the net
Oakley Jury is nice as well.

Tag watches at £600 ish are sporty looking things, not really what i am after, want one for wearing out etc.

I wouldn't buy a watch from Oakley. Stick with someone who makes watches, not glasses.

Check out Raymond Weil, Longines, Oris all of which have nice watches in that sort of range. Also I had a nice Hugo Boss one that was about £500 and was extremely good quality

That's the best thing to do. Most use shit quality components.

I have a Tag that was £650 ish, it isn't sporty. It's the 'professional' series.

And as said above Oakley, Arnette, Diesel etc ALL use Chinese components, if your spending £80 then it dpesn't matter but people spending over £100 on that tat are daft.
Do an ebay search for Omega seamaster pro - get a nice one with boxes, certificate, docs etc for £600 - retails at about £1100 quid new VERY nice watches Just ask James Bond...

That's bloody awful, you could have a far nicer and better quality watch than that for less money

Exactly what I was thinking, also Breitling, Corum, IWC, Mont Blanc all of whom make nicer watches in my opinion
