The 5 Best Women's Watches Under 50 Dollars
Timex
Weekender
Model: TW2P802009J
Case: 31mm, Brass
Band: 16mm, Canvas
Movement: Quartz analog
Functions: HH, MM, SS
Battery:
Water resistance: 30M/100ft
The Timex company started out many years ago as the Waterbury clock company, back in 1854, in Waterbury Connecticut. They have gone through some name changes, and some serious company restructuring, but have remained a maker of timepieces for a very long time.
This particular watch, the Weekender, is part of a rather nice, low cost line of watches I have enjoyed for some time now. I think they are nice looking, every day, knock around watches. The watch has a 31mm diameter case made from brass, with its crown at the 3 o'clock position. It has a white face, with black Arabic numerals marking the hours. There is also an inner ring of Arabic numerals, marking a 24 hour marking. The hour, minute and second hands are brass as well. The canvas band is brown with paisley, and is reversible. It has a standard, buckle style clasp.
It has a Timex, quartz movement. It has a water resistance of 30 meters, or 100 feet. What this basically means, is, it can get wet, but is best not to go swimming with it. It would probably survive, but it could as easily, fail.
I find this watch for around 35 dollars. Amazon sells it for 32 dollars. Putting it well under the 50 dollar price limit, set for this group of watches.

Bulova
Caravelle New York
Model: 44L143
Case: 20mm, Steel, two tone
Band: 20mm Steel, two tone
Movement: Japanese Quartz
Functions: HH, MM, SS
Battery:
Water resistance: 30M/100ft
Bulova started as an American watch company in 1875. They became extremely popular through the 1940's all the way into the 1960's. In 2007, Citizen bought Bulova in 2007. Making Citizen the largest watchmaker in the world. Bulova continues to make quality watches in their same style. Classic and American looking.
The Caravelle is a little unique, in it does not have a flexible strap, but is more of a bracelet style watch. The case is rectangular, measuring 20mm wide x 22mm tall. It has a crown at the 3 o'clock position. Gold plated with white inlay. The face is also white with gold hour, minute, and second hands. And Roman numerals at the 12 and 6 o'clock positions. With dashes marking the other hours. The bracelet style band has gold toned outer edges, with a white inlaid band down the center.
The watch has a Japanese Quartz movement. More than likely, a Miyota movement. Miyota is owned by Citizen, as is Bulova. Which Caravelle is a subsidiary of Bulova.
The watch can be found on Amazon for 28 dollars. Well under the 50 dollar price range, and is something I would consider an excellent buy. Even if you don't like this particular style, the Caravelle or bulova brands are good buys, considering the connections they have with Citizen.

Invicta
Angel
Angel
Model: 15149
Case: 32.5mm Stainless steel
Band: 16mm Leather
Movement: Quartz PC21
Functions: HH, MM, SS
Battery:
Water resistance: 30M/100ft
I consider Invicta a mid range, fashion watch company. They have been making watches for some time now. The company was originally founded in 1837, in Switzerland. The company has changed quite a bit since then. It is now an American, it was purchased by an American investment group in 1991.
The Invicta 15149 has a 32.5mm stainless steel case that is gold plated. It has a crown at the 3 o'clock positions, with a guard around the crown. It has a pearled white/gold dial face with dash marks for the hours, and a double dash for the 12 o'clock position. The hour, minute, and second hands are also gold plated steel. The watch band is white leather with a buckle style clasp. Which is also gold plated steel.
The movement is called a Japanese quartz movement, PC21. I cannot be sure, but I do believe that this is a Miyota movement. If I am able to confirm that, I will update this post.
The Angel can be had for just a hair under 50 dollars. If you look around you may find it for as low at 45 dollars, but generally, it is around 47 dollars. It is a nice watch at that price.
Swatch
Candy Parlour
Model: GG219
Case: 34mm Plastic
Band: 20mm, Silicon
Movement: Quartz
Functions: HH, MM, SS
Battery:
Water resistance: 30M/100ft
Swatch is a name I remember fondly from my younger years. I had a swatch watch, and a bunch of cases and bands, and bump guards for it. Not much has changed for the actual Swatch brand watches, but over the years they have become a powerhouse in the watchmaking universe. They own ETA, which is one of the go to companies for watch movements, and this means, they have a nearly endless supply of quality movements for their timepieces, and all the timepieces that fall under the Swatch conglomeration.
So, yeah, the watch looks like a kids watch. But it's a Swatch watch. it's about what you will always get when you buy a Swatch. Of course there are some different looking watches in the Swatch line, so if you want a Swatch, you do not have to settle for the Candy Parlour. But I picked the Candy Parlour, because it was more of a woman's watch, most of the Swatch watches will be unisex.
The Swatch watches are all basically the same. They will only have different appearances. They have a 34mm plastic case. They have a small crown at the 3 o'clock position. The Candy Parlour has a white face, with colored circles marking the hours. The hour and minute hands are blue and the second hand is teal. The band is 20mm teal & pink silicone, with a purple buckle style clasp.
The watch can be had for around 42 dollars. The Swatch website sells them for 60 dollars, but Amazon sells them for less. Just shop around if you are looking for a Swatch. You can find them all over the place.
Casio
Model: LTP1129G7B
Case: 30mm, Stainless steel
Band: 14mm, Stainless steel
Movement: Quartz
Functions: HH, MM, SS
Battery:
Water resistance:
Casio has a bad rep. It is considered by many to be a cheap watch brand. It has low cost watches, but the quality is not as bad as it has been made out to be. Casio has been making watches for a very long time, and are very good at what they do. The point is to remember, you are not buying a Rolex. You should never get a Casio confused with a Rolex.
Saying that, this Casio is a classic looking watch, very similar to what you would get with a Rolex. The 30mm stainless steel case has a gold plated bezel around the lens. It has a gold plated crown at the 3 o'clock position. It has a white face, with Arabic numerals at the hours, and gold plated steel hour, minute and second hands. The stainless steel link band is 14mm wide, with gold and stainless steel links, and a folding clasp.
This is probably the best buy of this list. Amazon sells the watch for 28 dollars. Well below the 50 dollar price point. And a solid buy for an every day watch.

Wrap Up
It has to be understood what you are buying when you purchase a watch for under 50 dollars. You are getting a watch you plan to wear every day. Not a lot of flash or extra functionality. Something that you would not be upset about, if you broke it.
These watches should fit that bill. I hope you find something that suits you. I worry about looks, being that I am a guy, but the real point behind the best women's watches under blog, is to inform people about watch makers. Just because you may not like the looks of any of these watches, you have been given some brands that I would consider quality, for this price point. Casio, Bulova, Invicta, Timex, and swatch are all brand names that will have several watches for women, in the under 50 dollar price range, so just take a look.
Personally, from this list, I like the Timex, the Weekender series of watches are quality watches, they have a lot of appearance choices, and it would be my first recommendation for anyone looking for a watch for under 50 dollars.
