My favorite? Seiko Quartz...an "SQ100"...semi dressy, gold electroplate & stainless. Metal link band. Water resistant to 10 bar, day-date, sweep second hand. I'm hard on watches, so it amazes me that this one has survived the 14-15 years I've worn it. Think I paid around $200, and "service" consists of a new battery every few years. When/if it dies? I'll look around, but I'll probably stick with a similar Seiko. 2nd favorite? For "dressy" times, I usually wind up an old 1940's art deco style (square faced) Lord Elgin...it's accurate, but no way could it handle the punishment I've given the Seiko..Sorry no pics...no digital camera here. Chronographs don't interest me...for some reason all the little dials cluttering up the face turn me off. If I want to time cars when at the track, I have a couple of old stop watches...
