This is the Timex Expedition LCD cheapo watch I currently wear:
I wear it for the following reasons:
1) I can read the display without my glasses and in low-light conditions (like a disaster deployment where electricity is not a given), It has a stop watch and a visible second counter so I can take pulses.
2) It has a cloth and velcro strap (I am very allergic to nickel-metal so unless it's 100% gold, silver or stainless steel, I can't wear it)
3) It has a stainless steel back for the same reason as 2.
4) It's a cheap piece of junk so if it gets lost, stolen or otherwise dies on me I can replace it for about $9-12. It also doesn't make me a desirable robbing target.
5) Said cloth and velcro strap can fit my very tiny 5" wrist circumference without having links removed by a jeweler.
6) It's water resistant enough that I can wash my hands, submerge them or whatever short of putting it in the washing machine and still have it work.
I also have an analog mickey mouse watch I wore when I was little baby graduate nurse 19 years ago. And a fancy 'wire' banded watch for going out that my ex husband got as some freebee for something years ago (I think it was some corporate reward program)
Now jewelry, that I have lots more of.
PS: My display is set to the 24Hr military time because I work with international clients who use a 24 hr clock and because I also sometimes work for the Feds who use the same.
