Depends how dressy you want to go

Citizen Promaster titanium jazzer?
Tough as old boots, made to take a knock or two, powered by light.
I think a couple of people on here have it or a similar one
(I realise now it doesn't have the white dial or strap requested, one of those is easily remedied though) -
Seiko SRPD97 would be my suggestion:

38mm, really nice textured dial and hour markers. A good simple black strap will really elevate it, eg:

cant go wrong with the Hamilton field, at 10mm thick its also nice and slim for smaller wrists. It's on my list to buy.

I was bought a Kartel Morris by my partner (https://www.kartel.co.uk/collections/morris-all/products/morris-gunmetal-white-flat-black-strap). It seems to match your description and I really like it - but I don't know if it passes the horological know-how of everyone here.
@Regal I'm actually curious about your thoughts on the typeface used. I'm not an expert in these things but I really like the look of it. You seem to be the expert of these things so I'm curious what you think of it.

Helson Metropolis
Junghans Form C (quartz at that price bracket)
and whatever Timefactors have in that budget.

I’ve been given £350 to buy something nice that I usually wouldn’t spend money on, and I also lost my watch, so I’m thinking of buying a nice one that I won’t lose. I’m finding it really hard narrowing down so wondered if there’s a go-to handful of brands for this lower-end budget.
Looking for something really simple and clean; classic but not Roman numerals; white dial, date, leather strap. I’ve seen a few by Tissot/DW/Citizen that are nice to look at but maybe a bit too dressy for me, but also quite like the Hamilton Field watches with fabric straps, even though I’m not a wartime pilot. But would be up for seeing any similar recommendations.
Don’t know – is there anything to add or shall I just carry on scrolling?
