Every Man Needs...

A. Lost mine, now iphone
B. My fantastic four (Navy k631, SRM763, Enlan EL01 & 02)
C. Energizer keychain light, backup is a LED / Laser Pointer combo
D. The greatest one, borrowing what Powernoodle said, mainframe like cognition, inner tigress :) and a great mother (part of being tigress I guess).

And yes, D. for those opting for one is most important. The rest are just things!
 
In all seriousness:

A) A Seiko 5-Auto 'military'
B) Victorinox Pioneer
C) Fenix LD10, I guess. I don't carry it often, just when camping.
D) I sleep on both sides of the bed.

Just got back from a night out. Still wired, can't sleep, cruising the boards and ran across this cool thread.

You have great taste in watches DoritoMonk.
I'm looking to upgrade to a 70's Seiko 5 Sportmatic myself.

I have many A, a huge collection of B, a few C, and prefer the freedom of not having a D.;)
I ran over to my nightstand drawer to grab what's handy and took a quick phone pic of some fave EDCs.

A) Vintage Seiko 5 automatic + original Casio G Shock.
B) Spyderco Native 5 + Kershaw 1993-2.
C) Original Sure Fire 6P (yup, still carry it on night walks) + 90's MiniMag with LED/rear button upgrade.

(OOPS! just realized I have a more practical Fenix E01 when i want to EDC a small light, but too late.)

Yes, I do like things in pairs. Good thing I didn't bring home two Ds tonight, I'd have to put them in the pic too. . . . . . . . . . . . just dreamin';)
 
1- Use my phone. I Have a watch and it works but when I put it on my wrist for any amount of time it'll lose time.:confused: Don't know why.
2-The HEST F2.0 and whatever else I feel like carrying that day.
3-Surefire E2D LED Defender (saw two others in here carry it also-good choice.)
4-Best friend of 21yrs. who happens to be my wife.
 
I would also add that every man needs a good gun (or several). :)

The watch: I have a diver's watch collection. But, my Doxa Professional 1200t has been on my wrist for a while.

The knife: Lately, I've been carrying a CRKT Eros. I love this knife. It is so thin and light. I don't even notice I'm carrying a knife. I often rotate this with a Benchmade 470 Emissary and a Spyderco G-10 Dragonfly. Also, I always have a Spyderco Paramilitary in my Maxpedition bag.

The Flashlight: I have a Surefire, but not sure what model. Sorry, not photo.

The woman and the gun: I have several guns but only one woman. The guns in photos are a Springfield Operator 1911 .45 ACP and my carry gun, a Kimber Ultra Carry II 1911 .45 ACP. The woman is my wife. We have known each other for 18 years and have been best friends for a long time. Here she is modelling a couple of blades for me.

If you get the good woman, everything else will work out.

I was looking for mine for 28 years. She bought me my favorite and most expensive watch. I would never drop $500 for it, but I am enjoying them for 12 years already. She never had any problem with me spending any money on knives or lights

1. my wife
2. Citizen Ti Eco-drive
3. 70 + Spydercos to choose from + one SAK
4. Novatac 120T
 
1. G Shock Solar Powered
2. Probably my Galyean Pro Series JYD when I get it
3. 4Sevens Mini 123
4. My mom
 
I have to disagree with your list and add a few:

A. Don't need a watch - my celfone gives me the time
D. Wife - don't need or want one
B & C - small knife and small flashlight combine into one - Victorinox Signature Lite

Add:
1. Larger knife - Spyderco Sage2
2. Larger flashlight - 4Sevens Preon
3. Small firearm - S&W 38 Special
4. Larger firearm - Kahr PM9
