get the tungsten movado… you won’t be disappointed.  
If you leave it somewhere… your arm will slowly rise into the air, immediately alarming you that your 5lb watch is somewhere else.

Baume Mercier makes some pretty sick watches, or if you’re not looking to go uber expensive, Diesel makes some pretty nice pieces.

I have this Fossil. i think it costs a little less than $100. i thought about getting a really expensive watch, but to be honest, i dont really dress up that much where i need some serrious bling, and i like to have a nice every day watch was well. this one is great because it looks really sharp, works great, and it can look really nice with dress clothes or with just casual. and because it is so cheap, i dont really feel bad if it gets a little banged up (thankfully mine hasnt gotten a scratch on it yet). i’ve had it for almost 2 years now with no complaints. i think my battery might be on its way out though but thats no biggie.

word.  
Dex has a fossil watch and he loves his.

it’s like that only a tad bit different.

of course i think when you ask him the time he just likes to say it’s 1 hour and 15 minutes past the diamond. or whatever time it may be.

It was only a Casio but, it was the Pathfinder which featured a thermometer, barometer that tracked and graphed weather, altimeter that recorded and graphed and had altitude alarms, 1 degree digital compass, 5 alarms, a light that turned on just by tilting your arm(for one handed operation), etc, etc, etc.

It was about $250.00.

Oh yeah and it was waterproof up 300 meters.:lol:

My friends thought it would come back to me since it could do just about anything.:lol:
