how old is your wrist watch?
I just realized a have worn my digital casio (standard spec) for 7 years now and apart from losing 2 buttons and alarm stopped working it still does the job!

I had a Timex digital for around 10 years before the buttons went. Ive had my Seiko Kinetic around the same.

My Tag is 5 years old at the minute, broke the strap the other day, the pin got bent, so not been wearing it for the last week and I felt naked without it. Fixed it yesterday though

Funny you should mention this. There's a bit of a 'debate' at the minute as to how long i've had my G-Shock for. First replacement battery after 7 years (I think) a few weeks back, although I'm being accused of owning it for longer than that with the usual 'tight as a duck's @rse' comments circulating

Mine cost nearly £80, I expect at least 20 years service from it!

15 years and still going strong. Never slow, and has only had 2 or 3 batteries in all that time.
Tha strap is only starting to go now, but should last a few more years yet. Just enough time to let me save for the Breiteling (spelt wrong) watch I want.

Bought my G-Shock in Dec 1990 in Hong Long.
Worn it every day since. Changed the battery ONCE and that was a year ago Xmas time, its had 2 straps and 1 plastic facia. Gains about a second every couple of days but can't be arsed to have it adjusted lol.

Not the best looking, but tells the time and is very handy for carrying data.
