    For me, the key is to select something that will look good through the decades. Which in turn implies something which isn't too 'obvious.' So this is great, but not as an 'only' watch in my opinion.
    While this, a bit more retiring, could work for all ages.
    Of course, having both would be better; but that's cheating.

    Not everyone is a young man (or even a young woman).

    Yes, can be liquidated to raise funds for the funeral.

    Not to mention that I've met retired saturation divers in their 70s and 80s still wearing the same Sea-Dwellers and Submariners that accompanied them hundreds of metres underneath the North Sea's surface, and the watches still suited them perfectly.

    Mind you, a diver's watch might have looked a bit out of place on the type of person who's afraid of getting one wet. ;)

    Probably my granddads watch which I am wearing since yesterday.

    When my grandfather passed away in 1996 it went to my father. On his passing - he died the 15th of April very unexpected - it was given to me. After his funeral yesterday I 've started wearing it. I feel extremely sad under these circumstances.

    It is an Omega Seamaster Mariner (the first model, cal. 1310 "the Ant" Megaquartz).

    Easy one for me...



    In all honesty it's everything I need in a watch.
