Seiko Kinetic (since 2002) that still serves me well! No batteries or service required and still keeps great time. Cheers!

Was wearing a Kenneth Cole when I bought my first Rolex,had some Fossils prior to that and a nice Seiko many years ago(that i destroyed working under the hood of a car with it on). Planned on owning a Rolex since i was around 20 or so(18 yrs ago),just never thought it would actually happen!

i went from an omega seamaster to a breitling automatic colt. then i was on a rotation of couple speedmasters before my first rollie. it was an omega brand in general, not a specific watch in my case.

Still have it. Paid about $500 for it in 1997 or so. Wore it on my wedding day in 2005 :-)
