I'm also a fan of the Luminox watch, as well as the Swiss Army Brand watches.

You should check out the Eco-Drive watches from Citizen. Electronic, but they never need batteries. They recharge from indoor and outdoor light. I bought one for my son when he headed off to pilot training. It's working out so well for him I'm considering buying one of these myself.

The entire collection is here Eco-Drive watches

I'm really hard on watches. Pieces are already starting to fall off my milspec Marathon dive watch after less than two years. I'm also tired of replacing batteries or having to set and wind a "self-winding" watch because I didn't wear it for a couple of days. Eco-drive would solve those problems. These are two I am considering for wearing in the woods:

Sport watch with Non-reflective crystal

Military - Basic and utilitarian

I've got a Citizen Eco drive, never wear it anymore. Its heavy, and the face scratch's easy. I also have a Seiko, unscratchable crystal face, I've accidentally run into the side of a glass and concrete stucco sided garage, the watch chipped the glass and thinset right out of the wall, didn't scratch the face at all. Its invincable.

My next one will have a moon phase for hunting:

I havn't worn a watch since mobile phones became reliable and I went onto salary instead of hourly rate.Even carried mine in Africa hunting with it on silent. It takes better photo's than my camera.

Cheers Neale.
