I have been wearing the same watch for about 20 years. It is a Rip Curl stainless tide watch. Picked it up at West Marine in Virginia when I had a channel to my dock that wasn't quite deep enough for my sailboat at low tide. It was a great addition at the time. I had no idea that it was going to be the least expensive watch I have owned because of how well it has lasted.

Waterproof to 600 meters so works great swimming or snorkeling. Last year the band had to get replaced and it has had 5 batteries through the years. It looks good and is tough as nails. Tides worked great on the East coast, not so much for the PNW.

I like wearing a watch. Although I carry a smartphone, I don't like pulling it out of my pocket to look at the time.
