For that price range you could probably just hit up some department stores. I recommend Macy's. I'd stay away from jewelry shops as their watches would definitely run well over $180.
Edit: Since all you care about is the look of the watch you might be able to get away with a cheap $10 watch from Walmart. They don't look too bad from a distance and you could easily pull it off granted people don't touch it lol. It does scratch easy though and won't last you very long but if it's a one time thing that might be the way to go.

[QUOTE="King_of_Games, post: 0]Yeah, but maybe you can see something you like, and then look in a store? I'm not really into watches myself. I used to wear one to school back in the day, but once I got an Iphone, the need for a watch just disappeared.[/quote]
Yea watches are no longer needed since everyone has a cell phone. It's now more about fashion like a tie than it is about purpose. But still, a nice watch is a great thing to have.

I always get cute girls askin me for the time. You never get people asking you to reach into your pocket to pull out your phone to look at the clock. :lol:
You better hope it's class at $150. But really Casio has some of the nicest looking watches on the market even if mine is a little scuffed and 5 years old.
My Casio watch even has a 10 year battery.

[QUOTE="HaTriX, post: 0]People still wear watches [/quote]
Of course. Some of us don't walk around like a phone zombie and even *gasp* leave them at home or in the car

one of mine, also got the vector mil spec.[/quote]
Core Military is a slick timepiece.
I'd say there's a few general watch segments:
Classic, lower cost products from Timex/Citizen even Swatch, etc. They work great, have lots of styles and price points. They're _watch_ companies for the most part.
Fashion watches that have higher cost because of the brand equity, but can have pretty low end time mechanisms. Some of these can be pretty pricey, but there are also some really nice and fun watches from companies like Fossil (that are fairly inexpensive).
Vertical market, specialty low-med cost like the Suunto above, Luminox, etc. Built to a pretty precise spec, the classic manufacturers have gotten into this as well. I kind lump Casio in here too.
Mid grade to lower-high-end like Rolex, Tag, Breitling (Mavado to some extent). Some killer watches in this segment with solid movement design, and a wide range of price, designs.
Then esoteric, handmade high end stuff like Patek Phillipe, Nardin, etc.
I *love* watches
