I've had a Citizen Aqualand Duplex ProMaster for over 10 years now. Still running strong! I dive, so I needed the dive capabilities. Had it down to well below 180 feet. Luminescence isn't as good as when I first got it, but I can still tell the time in the dark...

Default G-Shock

Bought my G-Shock back in 2000. It's survived 6 years in the 82nd airborne division, 120 or so jumps, two tours over in the middle east, and know firefighter duty. I love this watch and I have only had to change the battery twice.

Default Suunto!

The Suunto is the way to go. I am on my second one. I have bought one on each deployment. The first Suunto was the Vector, now I have the Core (military edition) which is all black with a negative face. Yes they are expensive but they are durable and have a lot of functions. Good luck, you won't be disappointed.

Default Tissot!

I love my Tissot Touch. Its titanium and has all the features your looking for as well as an altimeter, barometer and thermometer. Its my backcountry hiking and snowboarding watch. The touch feature is also super cool

Couple of watches I have been considering, I like the black design and the compass / altimeter / barometer functions. Note: Pro-trek is similar to the Pathfinder watches mentioned earlier but are overseas versions.

Casio Pro-Trek PRG130Y. Around $200



Casio Pro-Trek PRG-500Y-1 (This is on my to buy list and is competing with Jeep Mod money!) Around $330.



And if money was no object: Casio Pro-Trek PRW-5000YT-1JF
This watch was only sold in Japan, a completely blacked out version of the above with upgraded sapphire glass and it has the auto update radio feature so you never have to set the time again. It is around $900.



And finally this is my daily wear / at work watch: Invicta Reserve Specialty Subaqua - 500 m water resistant! This is a big watch, and in person it is dark black, the image doesn't do it justice. I get at least one person a day commenting on this watch and i love it.
