What annoys me is I keep buying automatic watches, because I like the fact they need no batteries, etc.; but end up having to buy a new one roughly every year because either they fall to bits (Citizen brand) or I smash them up (Orient). I bought a Sekonda (auto again) from some bloke at the Malpas Yesteryear rally this morning, so it'll be interesting to see how long this one lasts...

I like the Citizen eco-drive (solar power) in the titanium case w/ mineral crystal face.  So far (5yr), i've got a couple of scratches in the crystal, rest looks brand new - titanium is tough. Normally, my skin corrodes the heck out of watches. SS was too heavy.
