If you want the ultimate outdoor watch,you need a Breitling Emergency......they are bullet proof,digital and chronomat display and they even have a function which allows you to unscrew a cap on the side of the watch which sends out a distress signal on 121.5MHz
and you get rescued by a helicopter(and charged for it I suspect)
Take a look at the range on Breitling.com

gregh

ref the brietling

It doesn't do barometer, temperature or altitude though does it!

Cheers guys........Yoza..nice watch but a bit too expensive for work.....probably go with a casio........

yoza

Im in the middle of taking some photos of my watch collection for insurance purposes if they are any good IE clarity etc I will try posting them later on this thread,if your interested.

What's the point in having a bullet proof watch, when your wrist isn't?

yoza

You are a bit daft.........
Whats the point in wearing a bullet proof vest,if your chest isnt?
heeeeellllllllllo

Fosters

Nice try yoza! Are you wonder woman then?

paulr

Yoza....defo interested in your watch pics.........

ozzy

What do you want the watch for? pose value? If it's fitness your after, then your better getting a decent HRM from Polar.

Just for casual wear,but they look fun......

sebastian

Breitlings are soooo vulgar, ostentatious and gawdy, and frankly, worn by people with money but no taste.

sebastian

...and those nasty huge plastic Timexes and Casios are worn by people with no money or taste.

Seb,
Brietling are the finest flight watches manufactured,end of story.They are not all bulkey,emergency series,B1s,and avengers are huge but the likes of the Navitimers(like Tiff wears)are not huge.Also the wings series are not big either 38mm dia,12.9mm thick and wieghing only 71.4 grams,as opposed to 43mm dia,15.8mm thick and 84.6 grams of the emergency,you know youve got this watch on.I must admit I have a thing for big watches,Omega seamaster,omega seamaster GMT,brietling emergency,B1s ect.Ive also just realised looking at my collection,that every watch I own has a rotating bezel.....wierd never noticed before.
