Where can I buy a watch for £2-3, from a shop, today?

As it says in the title.

I took a fall y'day and broke my watch. I hate being without my watch so need a spare just whilst I'm fixing the other one. I tried ebay, but postage could take a while. I tried argos, but they're about £5-7 for the cheapest.

Any ideas guys?!

H Samuel do some pretty decent looking ones for £6. Not sure if they have many shops in London though.

2-3 squid??? Jeeeeez.....

Second hand shop ftw

I know knos this geezer right ...

Argos 4.99 GBP

do you think the pound shop or a pound saver might do them?!

+1 Definitely will...whether it will tell the time is an entirely different

Since owning a mobile phones i have never worn a watch, its just not worth it.

charity shop ftw

That's probably not a bad idea. I'll go find some!

use the suns position in the sky. It's easy.

Great idea when there's only eight hours daylight.

Woolies? hear they have a sale on ;-)

I have a heart rate monitor/watch from a cereal box at home.. going to West beers tonight?

Failing that, htfu and nail your mobile to your arm.

You're obviously not in London.. where there's about 4 hours of day and most of that isn't "light".

I may have exaggerated:

Might not be as cheap as you like, but I had one for years until it got nicked from my locker at work.

Not very cool, but does the job.

the sun is fairly cheap.

Say that to her face.. you wouldn't last 5 seconds.

Well I tried a few places, including all 6 charity shops on Camden High Street (which, by the way, are a rip off!) and woolies and found nothing that I could use as a time piece. I did find loads of other things like tools and so on though! I ended up at Argos and looked at the immensly cheap £4.99 watch\/

which really wasn't very comfortable, so I decided to look at the Casio watches knowing that they are pretty much bomb proof and fit me well.
Anyway... I ended up with this\/

which was £9.99 instead of £23. So, even though I paid more than I was intending to, I feel like I got a fairly decent spare watch that should last many moons when it is required.

Phew! I can go home and sleep easy tonight...

What a glorious 5 seconds tho.

Well I'm glad YOU'RE happy at least. Calm down everyone, panic over.
Now we can all rest easy.

Not very cool??? I stopped wearing a watch, but this was my regular wrist-piece. Hipster watch FTW.

best watch ever, even thought it may be a hipster one, it´s water resistance in the least.
