Is your wrist cold?
Most of us probably can’t afford a Rolex, and even if you could, would you dish out the bucks? 10K + for a time-telling bracelet seems like overkill. However, the right wrist-watch can signal status, style, and prove to be a subtle flex. There are plenty of affordable, and high-quality options which won’t break the bank.
It may take you a paycheck or two, but these are some the best watches for under $400, according to GQ.

Blue is the new black — you heard it here first.
