Andrew,

Since you're a Lawyer, it doesn't surprise me that you don't have a watch. "Estimating" billable hours can be very profitable. Bwuahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!

I collect watches so quite a few different ones!

I like the ruggedness of my Luminox and the tritium markers are great for continuous viewing in total darkness. My ProMaster is a nice all weather rugged watch as well.

I find my Tag chrono (6000) is appropriate for most appointments.

To actually stand out in importance, it's hard to beat the gold on gold (1995) Rolex Submariner. If I really want to look like a geek, the Gold Breitling Emergency is my forte.

I'm not into the really expensive Patek Philippe watches, although they are unique.

Cheers!

I was wearing a timex for the handy timing features, but since valentine's day, I've been wearing a fossil. It was a gift from you know who, so I don't know what it costs.

Any Seiko kinetics? They are pretty neat. Just like a typical automatic, you must wear them at least twice a week or they will die.

Cheers!

Timex Ironman Indiglo - $16.

I can't fathom spending hundreds of dollars on a watch that doesn't light up.

Seiko all titanium watch. Its not self-winding, but I think I can dish out the 5 bucks for a new battery every 3 years or so. Cost around 300.

I have a Fossil &quot;Blue&quot; all metal chronograph watch. I think I paid like $110 for it. One of these days I'll buy myself a Tag Heuer. I want one of those bad.

I'm wearing my dad's old Cardinal 19 Jewel shockproof. I don't know how much he paid for it, but the rumour is that he paid a couple hundred bucks back in the 80's for it. It's very accurate, but the windup spring seems to need replacing(I need to rewind every 4-5 hours or it stops).
