I am a watch collector, and I primarily prefer analog type style watches. I also really like the classic and military styles as well. It seems like the current trend is having an entire computer basically strapped to your arm, which makes no sense to me whatsoever based on the fact that the usually purpose of having a watch is to be able to quickly tell the time. I got myself a timex expedition watch for the express purpose of telling time, and that is all that it does and it does it very well. It has the ability to take a ton of abuse very well, and it does so on a regular basis with me when I take it to the gym, hiking, diving, and a bunch of other activities that most watches could never handle. I highly recommend this product and suggest that everyone go out and buy one immediately.
