I can't leave the house without my watch. I specifically love the divers style watches that are waterproof to at least 200 meters (you never know). My current one is a Pulsar solar watch that can be seen here: http://www.gadgetlite.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/pulsar-solar-watch.jpg It is by far the best watch I've ever owned and have not had to replace the battery and am going on 7 (I think) years or so. All my previous watches started to have problems when I replaced the batteries although I admit, I don't think I've ever paid much over $100 for a watch. Would like James Bond's Omega watch some day (that will never come).

Affordable, comfortable, extremely accurate, and it has the 24 hour dial that saves me a little arithmetic at work:

And coincidentally that is the watch MacGyver wore through the firet 5 seasons of the show. I didn't know that. But I recall seeing the watch on CHINA BEACH, an Army show. In another matter, I did a simple Internet search to find the picture, and the search must have put a cookie on my computer, because now I'm seeing ads for watches everywhere I go. I'm glad I didn't search for Dick's Sporting Goods, I'm gonna tell you that much right now.

People still wear watches? I don't. With my cell phone and clocks all over the place, work, car, etc. Who needs one?

I've been looking admiringly at some of these MP4 watches. I wanted a watch with a 'studio clock' display and these seems to fit the bill - and can play videos. If I can find a more symmetrical version I'm buying! Actually, although I generally don't care for digital only watches, this one's pretty cool. Like Mitch, I can recognise the time with a split-second glance at an analogue face from the position of the hands* (and I generally know whether it's morning or afternoon ) whereas I have to read and translate the figures on a digital one before I know the time. And apart from anything else, the older I get the harder it is to read the numbers. On the other hand, I've had a few watches with both analogue and digital displays, which was useful in some ways. In an either/or situation, the digital loses. TG * in client meetings, it might be considered rude to stare at a watch whereas I can normally get away with a surruptitious glance at an analogue display, so it's more than aesthetics that govern my preferences.

No watch -- just my cell phone if I need to know the time.
