Orvis automatic field watch.

 

Citizen Eco drive watches 200m or skyhawk

 

Dunno the actual "model", but I have a Citizen EcoDrive, too. I love that it doesn't take batteries, and I don't have to remember to wind it.

 

TImex Ironman.

Cheap and I haven't been able to kill one yet... though I haven't tried I suppose.

 

Citizen Eco drive...

 

Yep.

Citizen Eco-Drive here too. I got mine from Costco and it is Titanium. Great watch with great "glow" hands and markers. I also use the rotatable bezel all the time.

Timex Automatic. It has a 27 jewel movement so it should last for 10 years or so.

Unfortunately it does not glow in the dark. I want a better one but have not found the right one at the right price.

 

I use a Seiko Titanium chonograph . Since I am a Watchmaker/jeweler Batteries are not a problem. If I had to buy a watch today I would go with a Citizens Eco drive With a stainless steel case. We sell them and they cause very few problems. By the way a analog watch can be used as a Compass follow this link http://www.learn-orienteering.org/old/nocompass1.html

Good ol Casio G-shock. 80$ I think im going to get a solar G-shock though. I cant afford a Eco-drive. The casios are bullet proof. Ive had mine 6 years. Coverd in scratches, never broke, used two batteries up.

Hi Hog. Hope you are well. I wear a Swiss Army watch by Wenger that my kids gave me a dozen years ago. had to change the battery about 6 years ago. need to do so again for safety sake. take care, your friend Larry

 

$10 waterproof watch from walmart... crap. Thanks for this thread I just though of a new investment :

 

Luminox Navy Seal dive watch. Had it for 7 years now. I'm tough on watches 'cause I'm always in or around water and it has never failed me. I've worn the black finish completely off the back, broke and replaced the strap twice and broke the timing bezel once. Luminox repaired everything quickly and reasonably.

I'd get one again if this one dies, but I don't see that happening anytime soon.

 

Don't know, actually. It's a pocket watch my daughter bought for Christmas a few years back. Has a Locomotive on the front and the face says "japan movt" and "quartz". I always carry a pocket watch unless I'm riding my motorcycle and then I wear a Timex wristwatch as it's a little inconvenient to try and dig out the pocket watch at 60mph to see what time it is.

Swiss watch - Traser P6506 Commander 100 NATO

 

TAG Heuer Aquaracer automatic.. great watch. Haven't touched it in over a month and it's only 8 seconds fast, with lots of IPSC shooting, swimming and saunas during that time.

 

i dont wear one and havent since i worked in a hospital 20 yrs ago .I dont ever plan on wearing one in the future..... um just curious but what ya'll needing them enslaving contraptions for in shtf or any real outdoor thing other than for the commando raids n using them as a really bad rendition of a compass?

I think a watch could be used to determine how much daylight is left. So you'd know how much time you had to build a shelter or search for water. Also You'd need a watch for making patrol maps.

 

breitling m1. rock solid...

 

I'm sorry I just can't see spending $3,000 dollars for a watch. All it does is tell the time and date. Oh yeah, and its waterproof to 1000 meters for when you have to bug out to the bottom if the Atlantic.

How important would a watch be? In a survival situation. I think a 30-100 dollar watch would more than suffice for anyone's realistic needs.
