Shecky’s

Black Friday—the biggest shopping day of the year—is next Friday! Whether you’re after a gift for your mom, sister or BFF, or you just need a new timepiece to keep track of all those holidays plans (and want to look good while doing it!), watches should be at the top of your list. Here are a few faves for under $80.

If you just need a sleek, “everyday watch,” try Dakota’s Leather wristwatch ($39.95). The neutral hues are simple and will match everything, but the mod, square designs keep it interesting!
