...may you help me?
I’m seventeen years old. I’m dressing mostly causally. I want an artless, thin, ageless watch without a metal-bracelet. I hope, you get,
what I’m looking for in general. The dial shouldn’t be in any „funky“ or „strange“ colour. Either black, white or grey. The watch hand
also should be kept simple. The hour-markings should be simple and decent as well. So in general, I just want a straight watch. I think,
danish design is what is attracting me most at the moment. Something like Skagen or Jacob Jensen. I’m thinking of an investment for
about 150€. If one, or two points don’t fit to my list, don’t quarrel posting another recommendation

Try a Seiko 5 if you can find them where you live. They're automatic and not too expensive. I personally like their basic field/military watch, but I don't think they offer the metal band option. You described the Nomos watches, but unfortunately they're out of your budget. I recall both Citizen and Seiko make thin quartz watches with classic basic faces. You should be able to find one to your liking from their hundreds of designs.

I have about 4 on different bands, and they're all great, but not ultra-rugged, my son has broken a couple of them. Also, they vary in run time, some will go 2+ days without shaking, others less.
They can be found on ebay inexpensively, but shipping will be much more reasonable if you buy a couple or few at the same time.
