What watch do you wear?

The band broke off my $18.98 calculator watch, and I'm pondering a different style for the first time in 12 years.

So I'm looking for suggestions and want to see what y'all wear. I've been considering a Timex data link variant for it's geek quality, but am as yet undecided.

There's one coming out with linux on it. Now *that* would be cool.


Edit: Post link to model or pic if possible. Thanks.
 
Tag heuer kirium. The thing is like a brick, it hurts my wrist if I wear it too long.

(Oh yeah, and it costs $250 to replace the battery if you want to have the seals done at the same time. Blah.)
 
Citizen Promaster Chronograph. I've had this one for close to three years now. Last watch I had was a Visage Chronograph and I bought it in 1990, it survived until 2000. I like buying watches that last.

I have an Elgin PQS for everyday.
I have a Raketa watch that has a 24-hour dial that I wear sometimes for fun.
I have a Timex that I wear for surfing (although I'd like to get one of those cool watches with the built-in tide-clock/wave indicator).
 
A simple and cheap Kenneth Cole, with polished bezel, carbon fiber face. Only cost me like $140...unlike my friends Tag, and another friends Rolex. yipes. 🙂
 
Timex Expedition (analogue) that my girlfriend bought me for my birthday 😛 . Before that I hadn't worn one for a long time; I have a bad habit of being very rough - unintentionally of course - on watches for some reason. Never had one last for more than a few months before the band breaks, or the face cracks, or the thing fills with water...sometimes they'd just flat-out die on me. This one's working pretty well though.
