I wear a G-Shock, a DW-6600. No frills and tough as nails, I've been wearing it for years and it's still in good shape.
I love watches but I don't wear my nice ones because for some reason I am just dangerous to watches. I tend to beat them up badly so I just wear my G-Shock for every day wear.

I love my Mudman! Casio G9000-3V. Here's a link:

Tough as all get out and the only thing I've had to replace in over 2 years (maybe 3 I'm not sure) is the band. It's a great watch. I set out to get a watch that I couldn't break in 3 months. After a lot of research, I finally decided on this one. This is the most expensive watch I've ever bought or owned and it was still under $100. Terrific!
That's a gorgeous watch, Clio! Very classic and I'm sure it will serve you well.

My first watch i got with my first proper wage packet in 83 was a G-shock one of the originals i think, ive had them since and they are great bomb proof watches, although i wear my modified seiko 6309 most of the time these days as like to have a watch with a movement, but you cant beat a G

Nice watch. Yes, I'm a fan as well of Casio. That style of watch with the rubber band is great
for me in my line of work. Leather and velcro not so good.
Love the classic look. Another great thing I've noticed casio doing is with their "steel" bands they
have is that great locking system on the release clasp, two little tabs you have to simultaneously
push in to open it. Great system in that your not so apt to hit it on something
and have the watch open up and dangle on your wrist.
Anyhow great watch, I might go looking for one.

Ditto on Casios. I
LOVE
my "Data Bank." I keep all my phone #'s and appointments in there. This is my third (been wearing them since high school).
That said, when I'm in a particularly "snooty" mood, I'll usually wear my Seiko.
