Update at bottom of post: I Bought One! Help Me Find a Watch Please
If you had $500 to spend on a watch, what would you get? What's very "in" now? I'm picky, thanks.
*Please post pics

Re: Help Me Find a Watch Please
I personally would probably get a few fashion statement pieces to switch around with my wardrobe rather than one classic expensive piece
this wooden one is $179...it's fairly unique, neutral...i like it.
I also really like this mint nixon watch but it's hard to find
La Mer makes some nice wrap watches i like too.

Oversized rose gold like Michael Kors or Marc Jacobs
MK
MBMJ
I love this style. The same size/style is also available in white, silver and regular gold but I think rose gold is a unique spin on a classic. I have an MK one and get so many compliments on it.

I LOVE Michael Kors watches. I just got this one for Christmas, it has a larger face but it's not too big:

Re: Help Me Find a Watch Please
If your budget is $500 you should look into burberry, their watches are swiss made, which means they are made in switzerland as opposed to swiss movement which is made in china.
Here is a nice 38mm in silver
Burberry Silver
Burberry
They make some nice ones with leather coated straps for $395

I love the look of the rose gold or gold, however, my engagement ring/wedding band is platinum so I'm not sure if anything would really "go" other than a silver, white, or black watch. If you ladies think I'm wrong and think you can still wear a gold or rose gold watch even with platinum rings than please tell me. I'm not good at this and want it to look right.
*Keep in mind my rings(if you're familiar with the designer Tacori) are antiquey looking

I have white gold rings and I wear them together with the rose gold watch. I think it looks fine, and my engagement ring also has a bit of an antique look to it.

Re: Help Me Find a Watch Please
you should also do a search on pinterest...you'll find so many great options. Only draw back is sometimes people don't link things to the parent site properly. Anytime I'm looking for something I look there for ideas.

Re: Update at bottom of post: I Bought One! Help Me Find a Watch Please
Thanks for all the ideas ladies!
I decided to go with a Michael Kors Parker, 39MM in Expresso. I was going in thinking I was going to get the Rose Gold one but fell in love with this color and every time I kept trying both on my eyes leaned more towards expresso. If you click on the link you'll see it. I am very happy with my choice.
Thanks again!

I LOVE your choice! I have a MK espresso, and wear it all the time. I originally wanted a rose gold as well, but it didn't look great on me, and same thing..espresso kept catching my eye. Enjoy, I love it!
