Luminox Titanium: Navy Seal watch (Sharper Image exclusive model)
Large watch, but only weighs 3.8 oz's due to Ti construction. Had it for a year now, and it is indestructible.
I accidently backed over it with my car (long story), and it just scratched the clasp a little. I went the auction route on SI site and saved 230.00 under the 550.00 retail. 🙂
 
Casio G-Shock DW-5700C. I've had this thing since 1990 and no problems. I would have bought a new G-shock by now, but the damn things cost twice as much as the original one that I bought back in '90 and now they come in all sorts of circus clown colors that make it look fugly.

<< omega seamaster professional chronometer pic here

doesnt keep time all that well though seems like it loses 2-3 mins every month

That's because it is completely mechanical. Most highend watches are mechanical. Acceptable gains/losses are a couple of seconds a day. 2-3 minutes a month works out to be about 4-6 seconds a day.

If you want accuracy, nothing will beat a quartz watch. Why do people buy really expensive automatic watches then if they don't tell time better than a $10 Timex? Because they are mechanical marvels, they have soul, etc.. etc..
