A $6.43 watch from Walmart. It's close to 4 years old now, still keeps time, and is still on its original battery.

I only wear it when I really have to, I don't like the feeling of it on my skin. It's even got a fabric and velcro wristband - I hate the ones with the metal bands, because they always manage to catch hairs on my arm and rip them out. But I'm also the sort who cuts the tags out of shirts because the constant scratching starts to hurt, and just the intensity of the feeling of anything against me makes it like someone is talking directly in my ear and just won't shut up.

I currently wear an Accurist Chronograph watch with a dark blue pearl like face with gold detailing. I?ve had it for about 2 years now.

As it?s my birthday tomorrow :D I plan on purchasing this Emporio Armani watch that I?ve been eyeing up for some time. It?s a damn sexy watch, costs about ~£250 so it?s not that expensive.

Nixon Esquire

beautifully made, i dunno what the face is made of , but it must be crystal toughened glass or something becuase it seems impervious to scratching. stainless steel case is really well machined too, japanese stainless steel.

I use my cell phone. I have a watch, it's a Timex. I don't wear it even when I can find it. I paid $8 for it.

I have a very simple silver and black face watch from ?? that has a leather wristband. I use my cell phone as my timer most of the time unless i'm at something very formal.
