Anybody have any suggestions for buying a rugged watch?

Question

I've gone through a lot of watches in the past year. I am wondering if anybody has any specific brands or types of watches they could suggest. I'm an outdoorsman, and I would like for it to be waterproof. I would only want to spend about $200 at the most.

Answer 1

the old commercial has held true for me

"A Timex takes a l*****g and keeps on ticking"

I usually buy mine from Campmor - $25 or less

wear it swimming, working with power tools, hammers, etc.

they usually work fine for a couple of years until battery dies and then I just buy a new one

Casio G-Shock.  I am pretty rough with my watches (being an outdoorsman myself and my work environment) and in the past eight years I have not had any issues -- the only thing that I have had to replace is the battery.

I had a Luminox Navy Seals Dive watch that barely lasted me two years -- overpriced P.O.S.
