Fossil here too. Love my watch, titanium with a blue face on it. They don't sell the same model anymore, maybe I'll take a picture with skibum's camera sometime...
I have a Suunto Altimax. Older version of what I linked to below. It's a little big but very durable and it's has an altimeter that is fairly accurate. You can get the older version for around $120 at Costco.
This Bulova is the sweetest watch I've owned. Kenneth Cole's kick ass too. Very versatile, you can wear it with casual or dressy clothes and they don't have too much bling bling. Just enough to make some people look twice. Waterproof/chronograph ................
This board is bad for my bank account... I lost my watch in the water last week (cheap Timex) and I needed a new watch. I see this stupid post and I get to thinking I need a nice watch now! Doug I hold you personally responsible for my lack of self-control. I ordered the Eco-Drive Titanium Navihawk via HMEWatch today.
You'll not need another watch for a very long time. All it's gadets and stuff are ok but the thing that keeps me happy is it's impecible time keeping abilities. Doug's not kidding about losing 2 second over several years.
I double check my watch with my home office wall clock and the ACARS in the jet, both which synchronize with the 'atomic clock' and I haven't had to reset it since I purchased it in 2002.
Simply awesome.
And I'm a time geek. If it's more than a three seconds off, it drives me crazy until I reset it with a verifiable official source. So if hotel pick up is at 0800 and it's 0759:58 seconds, I'm on time!
Yeah it's a pretty slick little piece of machinery. And it's tough. I've worn mine almost literaly everyday for three years straight and while the band (mainly the clasp because it gets the most contact with surfaces) is a little scratched (I've got the stainless steel) it's still in very nice shape. And considering I wear it around the airplane (which has claimed so many pairs of pants and shirts that I care not to remember) the fact that the glass is not scratched at all is simply amazing to me. I bang the thing on doors, wings, get av gas on it, I'll wash the airplane with it on ... it's nearly indestructible.
