What watch do you wear?

I thought I had an ecodrive battery that wouldn't charge because it kept doing the second hand jump even after many days of charging in sunlight. Finally went back to normal after pulling out the crown and resetting the time.

One of these, depending on what I'm doing.

That Luminox Atacama Chronograph is a great model. I have a couple, and one is just like yours in blue... In the pic I'm wearing my son's and he's wearing my Chronograph. I'm preserving the original leather straps and using others for now. I have a diver version too, but can't find the pics.

My wife gave me the Luminox as an anniversary gift. After I opened the box, she said, "I'm tired of looking at your cheap plastic watch." Yes, she was referring to the Timex. And yes, the Luminox is a spiffy watch.

She's a keeper!

The watch too...
 
Try dealing with this one!!
Outside dial is a slide rule……brain broken!
I can handle a simple chrono with buttons that do start, stop and reset, I don't know about the more complicated chrono functions. I've used a chrono for timing things on my grill but if I don't do it very often I have to relearn which subdial does what. Another problem is seeing the subdials when the main hands are in the way which explains why chronos like the moonwatch have such thin hands.
Now the slide rule dial- I know how to use those and I once owned a Nighthawk. I had thoughts of using it in a restaurant to calculate the tip but then I realized that in the dim light of most restaurants I wasn't going to be able to read the dial so I don't own it any more. I still think it's a very interesting design.
 
I have had this GD-350 for many years, and wore it exclusively for three years as a work watch.

It's on its second battery, as it konked out due to me using the ten minute timer vibration feature quite often.

As you can see, I lost two of the plate screws. Despite this, the watch works great and has not leaked, even though it is submerged often.
