I just lost my G-Shock so I need a new watch. Any ideas what I can get besides another G-Shock for the same price ($120-$150)? I have huge wrists so I prefer something a little wider in diameter.

Thanks beyonders.

For that price, you can't go wrong with a Citizen Eco-Drive diver...

For a hundred, or so, more, I'd consider an automatic or kinetic Seiko.

Thanks.

However, I am looking for a digital movement, is there any brands that are well-known for that? I know that the Japanese do digitals the best but anything besides Casio, what others are there? I plan to buy in-store as well.

For digital, you can't beat G-Shock. Just get another one. :D

Diesel watches are almost always reasonably priced, and lots of digital.
If you want something sick for a little more you should check out the spencer from Nixon

My current one and only digital watch is a Nixon Outsider

It's fairly big, and has a compass. I picked it up, because the black face on black strap was pretty different, you can barely tell time :)

My views towards G-Shocks has been forever changed by this:
