Im looking for a new watch to wear all the time , but mostly as a good hunting watch !
I have noticed in Australia & Africa , that alot of the watches clients (and some pros) wear are not suitable , giving a lot of sun strike & many have weak straps or fasterner pins & smelly ,sweaty , bloody soaking type straps !

Any body know a good ,not too expensive watch , good for Hunting ?

Cheers if you can help !

Being in the United States, I can tell you that we are not afraid of wearing stainless steel watches. We do our hunting in longsleeves and the watch does a pretty good job at staying concealed. I don't know of very many people who are concerned about the sunlight hitting it and spooking big game - maybe some wild turkey hunters.



It's always a good idea to have a decent watch when shooting the heavy concussion guns. I broke two cheaper watches out in the plains of the US. The watches stopped the moment the gun went off. The air is thinner up there and guns just "feel louder". My watches couldn't take it.


I have had pocket watches before and they work great. You can put the whole thing in your pocket (so you don't rip the chain off) and the glass stays scratch free unless you happen to do something stupid with it open.
