I used to have a Swiss Army watch which was dependable, now have some Italian analog watch with a nylon band that I like because it is indestrutible and has a light for checking the time at night.
I use my grandfather's pocket watch for going out.
Thirty years ago I was sitting around a campfire in my front yard with a good friend. He took off his watch and threw it in the fire. It burned green and blue flames for quite a while. My friend announced "No more cheap watches, next time I am going to spend at least 15 bucks."
