You can keep your Rolex, Tag Heuer, etc...

The only one for me is the Omega Speedmaster Professional - "Flight Qualified by NASA for all manned apace missions"

The original, and still the best watch worn on the moon. I love the fact that I have to wind it every morning, that the face is made of synthetic quartz which can scratch but not shatter (in case I'm ever caught in a zero-gravity environment), I love the fact that the watch is nowhere near as accurate as the chronograph, but most of all, I like the fact that from more than three inches away, probably only about 1 person in a thousand would actually recognise it.

I tend to glance at the wall, or look in the corner of my screen.
