The watch in question: http://www.meritline.com/mens-quartz-watch-dual-time-zones-alloy-metal-strap---p-34311.aspx Watch face, by the way, is not that. It has a flashing world on it that I assume was placed in order to drain the battery as quickly as possible so I can't find inaccuracies. However, the watch DID come with a tiny little palm pillow that I can put on the back of my chair at work while I read and not rest my head on actual wooden desk.
As for the watch, yes, yes, super cheap. I know. I ordered it in the foolish hope that the band would be made of some sort of metal I would trust near my skin for more than moments, and that I could at least use to ask others in the know: "Hey, what is this?"
However, I didn't think past "ooo, I like it," when I should have been thinking, "Well, pawn shops aren't nearly as intelligent as seen on Pawn Stars, I have no watch stores nearby and only retail stores where I have found people who can barely turn a tool to take a back off, and jewelry stores won't talk to me unless I have hundreds hanging out of my pockets... think this through." And so, after that failing, I turn here.
I have a watch, a Guess watch (a gift from someone whom I really dislike, but it was still my first hefty-metal watch) that I got when I was a teen but has managed to fit with links put back in. This metalic band I really think would look good on it, or really any watch that I decide to get.
Also, a word of warning, when the band is called 'Metal' don't make assumptions that means real metal and not tin.. or something, I can't figure out JUST what this is, but holding it in my hands I can't feel any real weight. So any help would be appreciated in finding either the name of the style, or a band that looks like it so I can go from there.

I guess this is going to have to be one of those things I chalk up to an "OOoo, shiny" moment that will never pan out.
