I'd recommend the Tissot PRC 200 or V8 for a chrono in that price range

PRC 200 on Leather
PRC 200 on Steel
Other brands I'm that I'm sure will get mentioned: Orient (Japan), Seiko (Seiko), Hamilton (Swiss), Christopher Ward (Swiss). For under $300, you're looking at a quartz movement, which is fine.
If you just want a cheap, good quality sport chrono, I'd probably get a Seiko while you save for something nicer (if you want to)
I'd recommend something like this Hamilton Jazzmaster or the Tissot PRC200. Careful with the latter, as they are often faked.
Given that, I would also tell your friend that his lawyer buddies will probably not be impressed with these watches, as their budgets will be considerably higher.
This one with a black band.
If you want a mechanical watch, I would recommend the Orient Union, Millenium, or Vintage (in order of price). The Millenium (that's how they spell it) has a metal band but you could easily afford a leather one as well within your budget once you factor in the 50% off coupon code floating around.
If you'd prefer one closer to that Kenneth Cole you'll have to go quartz, but the Tissot PRC200 would be your best selection. Here is the amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000B7MBHM/ref=aw_d_iv_watches?is=l&qid=1323692800&sr=8-3
Sorry I didn't provide more links, on my way to work so I'm on my phone on the train.

I own a PRC200 with a blue dial, and love it.
No, I can't. Timex is well known for dominating the extreme low end of the market in terms of quality/price. All I'm saying is that I think it looks bad and for a casual watch I'd suggest something else, even a different Timex. You might have to be willing to spend 100 dollars on a watch, which for reference, is a very low amount for a watch. You can have your cheap digital watch for sports and a nicer one for day wearing. Personally, I love the look of plain chronographs, so for a casual watch I'd recommend something like:

The least you could do is upgrade to a Seiko 5, which will cost you 50 dollars more and look much better. Or even a Timex Expedition! Just 10 dollars more and it looks so much better than a Weekender.
