Bit of a tangent, but it's the 60th Anniversary of Doctor Who, so BBC Sounds has loads of the audioplays available to listen. Those should be available to listen, even in Australia. They invariably star the original actors, I just listened to one which stars David Tennant and Tom Baker.
The former, I'm a fan of the DW5600BB. Blacked out, minimalist, works with almost everything (even a suit), indestructible. A choice even watch snobs can respect. 50-100 dollars/euros on amazon.
The F91W comes in a few fun colours. I personally like black and gold. It's retro, so it's invariably seen as cool. It's also dirt cheap. 10-20 dollars/euros.
They've been making them for decades. A classic. Different colours if that's your style.
Bit of a curve ball, but I'm a huge fan of a simple casio.
When you're in a city or a deprived poorer area, it's far safer to look at your watch than take out your phone.
It's also more professional in a work context, especially in customer facing roles. If you look at your phone to check the time, people are more likely to think you're checking your notifications and not fully engaged in what you're doing.
Non-profit social media isn't exactly healthy either.
I know beehaw is a relative safe haven, but venture to other instances in the fediverse and you'll find cesspits of toxicity that are as bad as it gets.
And given what my experiences with toxic positivity, cancelling and culture wars in minority run communities which should know better, I doubt beehaw doesn't have its fair share of toxicity too. Even if you manage to keep out the worst bigots, people who have been hurt or bullied, quite often end up hurting or bullying others.
