I am trying to find a watch that is analog (vs digital), has an alarm feature, and a light. I DON'T want a sporty watch with either a cloth or rubber watchband. I want something that is dressy enough to wear to work and with nice casual dress clothes- something with a bracelet/bangle/or metal watchband. I have looked for an hour online today without success - I did find some in the $900.00range. I have also shopped around without any success.
I would appreciate some help if you know of a watch that fits this description.
Thank you for allowing me to be a thread hog.

Can you post a picture of one that you liked (the expensive one...) as a reference point?
I like Victorinox/Swiss Army and they have women's versions

Believe it or not, I got a watch very much like that at Target a couple of years ago. It was ~$35 and still worked great when I lost it a few months ago.
Targets have a very large watch section.

Believe it or not, I've bought Wenger and Swiss Army watches at excellent prices at both Big 5 Sporting Goods and SierraTradingPost that sound like what you need though I've never seen an analog watch with an alarm. Really? Huh. I use my phone for an alarm clock when I'm traveling.
So maybe check D1ck's or Sportmen's Warehouse or whatever you've got there.Frends know gud humors when dey is hear it. ~ Da Crockydiles of ZZE.

I love St. Moritz watches. I'm on my second one in the last 12 years. They are simple, yet rugged and suited for everyday wear.
Something like this is probably good for what you need.

I'd post a picture, but it really is nothing special. It had a white face with black numbers and a silver and gold band. Originally Posted by Mr. Silver
