I've got a Rolex Deepsea. A G-Shock for work and just purchased a lovely little Smith Empire Manuel wind cira 1950.
I've got the Loyal Adventurer, and have had it for about 4 years. It's pretty hefty, and feels high quality, though it went back for a warranty repair when the second sweep hand fell off. :mad:

I can only wear watches that are 100% stainless - anything else just rots or discolours. Leather straps fall apart in a year or so, anything that is plated (especially nickel plated) or painted the colouring just comes off after a few months.
I've chucked some pretty expensive watches out as a result. :(
Here is one I sold last year as I no longer fly:

It was a Breitling Emergency Global Orbiter celebrating the 1999 round the world balloon flight.
Still have my grandfathers Omega from around the 1930's Still works a treat.

Have a few more as well:(
They're certainly hefty!
I had one of the caps for the pins in the bad fall out, didn't bother trying for any warranty on it, just replaced it.

This is the other decent watch in my collection that still works, have several cheapy digital ones for messy times :D
It's my Grand Fathers old watch, still works just fine, needs a tidy up though. Loren.
