My watch died last night from natural causes. it was four.

So I replaced it today with this...........

It's a Citizen Eco-Drive Blue Angels edition. Great big honking watch. :P

Nice watch. I wear a Luminox SST watch (see link - mine's the black face one). It's got tritium inserts. I absolutely love the watch. I've had it for years & never had any problems.

I really can't stand wearing watches or rings. I use the clock on my cell phone.

+1 although my wife did buy a very nice Citizen a couple of years ago.

Looks like a nice watch there BigC.

I like the analog and the digital readouts
on one watch.

My favorites are my big old heavy SS ones
with plenty of protection to keep out the moisture
and water when I play around in the Rubber Duckie
Pond. My best are the Swiss made, but they do not
hold a candle in keeping time to the Seikos I wear.

None seeing as how I don't have a watch and they are uncomfotably annoying. Still looking for a decent brand and place to purchase one though.

She shouldn't be buying Citizens! Slavery is illegal ya know.

But if she did buy a Citizen I'm glad she bought a nice one.

I have an inexpensive plastic Casio digital watch for everyday use. I got into that habit while working in le; why take a chance on breaking/damaging a nice one with the things I knew I'd be involved with.

I have a 31yr old Blue faced Seiko that works like it did brand new for nice places. I also have a Fossil watch the wife got me for casual stuff and a real old Tissot 14K gold (made by Omega) that still works also, but I don't wear it much.

I'm the opposite of those who can't stand to wear one, I feel almost naked if I don't have one on. That's probably from the job also, as knowing the time of an incident was always important.
