On Monday, I had the day off and I tried on a Timex Expedition Military Field Watch at Walmart. The watch (shown below) has a stainless steel case, a small date window, and numerals denoting the minutes rather than the hours. It has a cool vintage look. Most importantly, it had enough band length to fit me with a decent amount to spare. I'm not sure that the band is actually made of leather. But, it is an attractive and rugged material. This Timex is model T498749J and comes up almost any time you search for Timex Military. For Father's Day, this watch might make a good choice. Of course, my own dad is an expansion band kind of guy.
You can get this Timex watch here at Kohl's for $65 and, at least for now (5/14/2013), it looks like they have a Buy One, Get One Half-Off Deal going --
