Which watch ?

[Grayfox]

There is only one watch to own
http://www.breitling.com/en/index.php#/models/navitimer/navitimer/

If you have to ask the price, then you can;t afford it.

Actually the navtimer is cheap in the range, a mere snip at £4,000. The others are MUCH more expensive.
Still if you want the best...

Ahem

Price points should be <£75

Any more than that and I will simply put a black strap on one of my EcoDrive watches and downgrade it to daily beater status.

OK some of the suggestions went a little over budget, but £4k is.....um.....

looks at his arm... no watch since my son broke mine 3 years ago and havent looked back since. When i need to know the time there is normally a device about such as phone, clock radio and car or work wall. If i am out having a walk or fishing i use the following principles..
if its light its daytime. If its dark its night time if i am hungry its time to eat if i am tired its bed time...

since getting use to not having a watch its quite a liberating freedom

really like the look of that citizen! in the market for something of that type. using a genuine fake rolex automatic at the moment since my sekonda which i loved broke at work, and my manual wind m10 stopped manually winding.

Have just purchased a breitling navitimer from a nice little man in shanghai !!!!!!!!!! great looking watch ,my brother-in-law has had one from our Asian friends for five years never missed a beat ???? so if you wanna fly to shanghai go through dark alleys,to get a bargain for 50 quid !!!! failing that spend four grand on an original ???? or just buy a casio g shock for £50 from argos great watch ,bullet proof does not look to bad either ......................

I have the Casio Pro Trek PRG-80-1 VER and can't fault it £70 (ish)

had a seiko watch once that cost me over £250 had it just over a year before it broke and seiko wanted nearly as much to fix it lol. Since then i've had a £25 Casio that keeps very good time has a great night light good alarm and is still going strong 7 years later on the same battery. Spending lots of money does not guarantee you good quality or even keeping good time.
I'll never spend more than £30 on a watch ever again.

I've got this one. Had it 15 months so far and not had any trouble.
My only gripe is that the light doesn't stay on long enough.

For that money the only watch is the Rolex Submariner.

First purchase if the numbers come up. And then well spend the rest of my natural telling the time with my phone. Got to love dyslexia

LOL same thing happened to me. I broke it on a stair post, I really wanted one Timex but only available in US so went without one for almost a year. Got a watch now, but still use my phone. It becomes like a nervous tick.

I would have a look at one of the Outdoor Timexs, they look really nice, and fit the price range.

Do not buy a mwc under any conditions

Traser H3, had one for last 4 years now, never let me down, very bright at night when needed using a glow in the dark gas.

 

[HHazeldean]

@Minotaur: I wouldn't go for a Timex. I have had one for about a year and it has already been scratched to bits on the face and several problems with it such as indiglo has stopped working as well as all of the chronograph messing up.

Just my experience with one of these.

Thanks for that, was thinking of getting one as a spare. Maybe not now. Oh good product search time

I've just splurged out on one of the new range of Nite watches: http://www.nitewatches.co.uk/shop/alpha/ALPHA-AL1

Utterly delighted. Tough as old boots, glows torch-bright in the dark (well maybe not that bright, but your wrist looks like a firefly), and for bushcraft purposes that can't be beat: wake up in the dark, quick glance, back to sleep. No pressing buttons, recharging the luminescence etc. Whilst it might not have the brand cred of the Omega, it's a lot more useful in the bush.

LOL, wish i'd never said that bloody jinxed myself my watch strap just broke it was sitting on the drawers waiting for a replacement strap and the battery went too
I'm not going to spend £15-20 on a new strap and battery so i'm buying a new one.

This is a good watch, weighs a bit though.
