Blog Bites: 3 Affordable Watches For The Non-Watch Enthusiast To Consider

It goes without saying that not every guy wears a watch. To those guys, checking the time on their phone will always be more practical.

These guys probably don’t carry a flashlight or pen because their phone has a light, and they can just type notes in an app rather than writing it on paper.

But today we are going to share 3 affordable options that even non-watch enthusiasts can’t deny.

Note: All prices reflect those at the time of the creating of this post.

Since we at A Step Above Style value your time (and because you already know why you’re here) we’ll jump right in.

Let’s begin.

The watch you didn’t know you needed is within reach.
