If you’re looking for a new timepiece this summer and have set aside around the £500 mark for this purchase, you’re in luck because there are some awesome watches you can get on your wrist for this amount and under.
We take a look at 8 of the best men’s watches for under £500 in 2022 below:
TAPFERKEIT LÖWENHERZ BLUE | £99
The Lion Heart or Lowenherz begins its quest to legacy with a powerful force. Creating an everlasting impression among its peers. Tapferkeit’s Löwenherz collection is for the bold, those who wish to leave their mark in this world.
BOLDR VENTURE WAYFARER-TANGERINE | £276
The Wayfarer Watch from BOLDR is the watchmaker’s tribute to classic 24-hour sub-dial watches housed in a sturdy titanium Venture case. Back when mobile phones were non-existent, 24-hour sub-dial watches were worn mostly by miners, explorers, submariners, and the like – jobs that could not rely on sunlight to know the actual time of day.
MINUS-8 LAYER 2.0 WATCH | $398
A contemporary, all-day, everyday watch that is versatile and ultra-reliable. The MINUS-8 Layer 2.0 Watch has a 316L stainless steel case, sapphire crystal and a dependable Seiko NH35 movement, meaning it is built-to-last and designed to go with you everywhere.
SHINOLA THE SEA CREATURES 40MM | £450
Every minute, one truckload of plastic waste ends up in the sea. The earth’s resources, climate, and ecosystems are what inspire and empower Shinola and they deserve protection. So they looked for a pollution solution, and used it to build the Sea Creature Detrola. Shinola crafted this watch’s case and strap from #tide ocean material® granules and yarn, made from 100% ocean-bound plastic waste.
AVI-8 MERVILLE WATCH | £140
Designed as a tribute to one of Britain’s most distinguished fighter aces and commanders in both Europe and the Pacific during WWII, the Carey Dual Time Merville Watch from AVI-8 is a perfectly wearable pilot’s watch drawn from a classic silhouette.
HAMILTON JAZZMASTER THINLINE WATCH | £375
The slim case of the Jazzmaster Thinline Watch from Hamilton creates a clean, streamlined aesthetic that will make an impression in a light, subtle way, offering a traditional look that will never go out of style.
FARER ELVINGTON II WATCH | £527
OK, not strictly under £500 but we love Farer and it’s close enough. The Elvington II Watch is finished with a polished back featuring a Farer engraved turbine design and each one is individually numbered. It is a chronograph Split-Second Flyback + date watch with matte black dial and your choice of strap.
G-SHOCK GMWB5000D-1 WATCH | $550
G-Shocks still hold their place at the pinnacle of horological robustness, but they’re also cool as hell. Uncomplicated, and utilitarian, it’s a timepiece that can handle anything you throw at it. This full metal version maintains the vintage G-Shock aesthetic while adding in modern amenities like solar charging and accurate atomic timekeeping anywhere there’s a radio signal.
