Had some decent watches, but stopped wearing one years ago.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

I don't believe in stupid expensive watches.
Own two decent watches. Basic pulsar Kinetic, which I've had since 2008. The other watch, is a cheap and cheerful Ben Sherman. Purchased from Argos in 2006.
Both still work fine.

I'm Dave.
I have a Rolex Submariner which I bought in 1970 for the princely sum of £84. I couldn't afford the model with date as that was £96. It now needs a full service which is likely to cost £500 or so. It now resides in my sock drawer.
I also have an Oris along similar lines to the Submariner but with a date. Around 6 months after I bought this it was running slow, so Oris rebuilt it and it now runs very well, losing just one second/day. A beautiful thing with a crystal back, so you can see the mech.
