Calendar types in watches

My eyes are so bad now that I would rather have a no date. Strangely the no-date watches tend to be out of my price range.

The Seiko Essentials series has several watches without complications; some have a street price of under $200.

Some even omit the second hand which is the most technically correct version of "without complications". Also the most traditional/formal for a men's dress watch or women's watch.

For an automatic with no date, the bulova hack is quite nice if the vintage field look works for you.

The one I had was great for the price, probably the most accurate automatic I ever owned but that could well be luck.

There is also an issue where some cheap no-date watches use a complication with a date, and just don’t cut out the dial to show it. I try to watch out for this whenever I’m looking for a watch.
