I have several watches depending on the occasion... antique gold Rolex looked up in safe deposit box (not really functional), Cross watch (yes, the same folks that make the pens) for more formal events, and two Swiss Army watches that I absolutely love. If my memory serves me correct , these Swiss Army watches have the same tough, resilient sapphire crystals (at least on my models) as originally supplied with Rolex. I recently purchased a ladies model of a Swiss Army watch for my wife and she too is now a big fan of these watches.

Without further rambling and to answer your origianl question - Swiss Army watches are my favorite because they are so tough and have a clean look about them.
