Choosing a watch is like choosing lingerie. There are certain criteria that must be met.
1. sexy yet practical
2. stylish yet comfortable
3. intriguing yet specific
4. appropriate yet adaptable
5. sophisticated yet crude

There is nothing to top the classic Rolex Oyster Perpetual!
The last watch is very futuristic-looking. The third one would look perfect on a race car driver, for some mysterious reason.
I love the masculinity of men's watches.
I agree about the Oyster Perpetual. I found one on the beach - unfortunately it was the Oyster Perpetul!
I've always liked the Movado Museum ever since I first saw it in the 80s. The black on black is so chic.
I wear a vintage mens Casio Illuminator LCD. It's the nerdiest, coolest watch around.
All your watches are very stylish...
Is that what we are really looking for in watch technology..
At wriststyle.com September highlighted the hard candy mp3 playing watch..

Yes, they are stylish watches.
By no means do I know a thing about the technology of watches. I do know that they can be uncomfortable, unreliable and over priced - like lingerie.
Only if Agent Provocateur made a demi cup that felt like a sports bra...
I've included a link in my post that will direct readers to a site that will, thankfully, shed a little more light on the subject than I can.
My father has the Rolex Oyster Perpetual and it's kept ticking for twenty or so years. I have a 30 year old Casio LCD that I've changed the battery on once and the alarms, stop watch and illuminator light have never let me down on a business trip.
You don't want your watch or underwear to let you down...
#1 and #7 A++++
something modern yet classic about #1 isn't there...
