2012 started off with a bang... Company I helped build and worked at for 16 years closed its doors, found a new job, found out my wife and I were expecting our first child, turned 40, and said F*#K it I'm buying myself a new watch!!! Oh yeah, and my wife her dream car!!!

I have a few year old Tissot with a bracelet, but just picked up this all black Tissot T-Race a couple months back. And I haven't wore my other one since. Really digging this watch and less than $500.

I think I might pick up an Atomic Casio Pathfinder for camping and such.

Nothing all too fancy but it works great and I like the style.

Victorinox Night Vision Watch

Just spotted this on Uncrate

Okay, so it might not be the best name, but there is a reason the Victorinox Night Vision Watch ($700) was given its name. Along with a Swiss analog movement, 42mm stainless steel case, and matching band, the Night Vision is also equipped with a barrage of LEDs to help you out after darkness falls. Those include a blue LED to illuminate the dial, a red LED that helps for location purposes, and a white LED that can serve as a flashlight, strobe light, or as a flashing indicator in the event that you need assistance — because your phone's going to die pretty fast if you try the same thing with the LED flash.

Uncrate.com ******, thats a second home for me.

I've been wearing a Zodiac Speed Dragon for the last 3 years. I'll never go back to the non-sapphire lens', I love not being able to scratch it. Decent overall watch, only crappy part is that the hands only glow for about 15 minutes (horrible). That may be the only reason I switch. Next watch will most likely be the Seiko Chrono Sportura, nothing too fancy, but I dig the chronographs. Some really nice watches here!

The Maratac Pilot watch has been my everyday wear for the past several months. I love it for an around the office and casual watch.

I'm hoping to get one of these for Christmas:

^Nice^

MWC G10 Tritium, bare bones, reliable, accurate and readable in the dark, always...well for about 20 years anyway.

2.5s exposure as the second hand attests.

That Anstead is a nice watch... great price too. Seiko guts, nice design, day and date... winner!

That is a cool watch... I wonder how long the battery will last.

Funny I should come across this thread. We are leaving for a 4 month trip into Mexico in a week and I'm taking my Explorer II with me. We are really just driving down to Sayulita over 2 days then basing out of there for 4 months. I plan to hide the watch (and laptop) while driving at all times! I don't want to get pulled over and hang my arm out the window with that on

Ditto, but its doesn't have a passport....so it just stays in the US (in my safe) when I travel. A few years back I got worried with all the "nice watch" comments while on vacation.

BTW, I have a buddy who used to work for "the Peace Corp" who traveled with a handful of very nice Rolex replicas, they came in handy for negotiating his way out of sweaty scenarios in the middle east...
