I rock a solar-faced Citizen. I will never have to replace the battery.

Seriously, I think the Eco-Drive tells you how much gas you have left in your gas grill, car and home heating system. Also tells you what you need to bake a cake. All this without giving you the time. He probably paid hundreds for it and doesn't need 95% of the features on it. What a waste of money.

Oh, I wouldn't call it a waste of money necessarily. Just far too busy for me personally. If I do wear a watch (on special occasions I do wear one, just an old Timex that belonged to my late grandfather and given to me by my grandmother; more sentimental value than anything else) I just need it to tell me the time as conveniently as possible. I'm sure there is some market for that watch but I would imagine it's very limited. Perhaps he needs a watch that can do all that in which case he didn't waste his money. Would be a waste of money for most people though I would imagine.

there a really nice ORIS williams f1 team watch at work, $1649 though so no thanks, also a bunch of tag's and citizens.

Citizen or Bulova

Eco Drive by the way is a solar charging mechanism built into the face of the watch. I've never had to replace a battery in any of my Eco-Drive watches. I've had them for almost 10 years.

Here are mine that I currently wear...

Wife says I have a watch fetish...

Invicta's, They have a 52 mm body so a very large watch...at 6'1" and 225, I'm big enough to wear them...

Racing Features

The Citizen diving watch is best known for having the Promaster’s Split Second Timing (SST) built-in turning it into a serious race watch that has 1/1000 second accuracy with the analogue registering 1/100 seconds. In addition, it can store up to 20 lap times and get the average speed based on the performance.

The circular slide rule allows time-distance calculations do to be done easily so you can figure out how long it will take you to go through a certain distance at a certain speed.

Could you consider any other watch than one called Speedmaster? I didn't think so.
