New rims, for that C&V look. Any suggestions?

Riding today, had a blowout on a brand new tubular, with no pre-stretched, pre-glued tire with me. Less than fifty miles on it.

...Anywayyyyys, 'tis what it is. However, I am now in the market for a set of clincher rims. If anyone has any suggestions or can point me to a set that are new, but have a nice classic look to them, I would greatly appreciate it.

Rims with these specs would be ideal:

700c
Black preferably.
I have about $120 for a new set, something with good quality for around this price, maybe up to $150.
Machined.
Don't care about the spoke count either, as I am ordering spares at well.
Moderate to Extreme riding.





Also, posting this just because it is a glorious bike (the picture is linked)
