Has to be...
My Bathyscaphe. Just too practical. It can't really do cuffs as well as you'd want, but that's not a situation I'm often in. The black really mutes it and keeps it away from others' eyes, which I like! ...
Lol, literally just made an offer on one...
Told myself I'd sell one watch first, but it seems like too good a deal....
My one gripe is the size
The last 2 watches I bought to use as daily wearers are slightly too big. One is 44mm and ~14mm thick, the other is 42mm (but wears like 44mm) and ~13mm thick. Kind of want something 40mm or smaller and 12mm or thinner.
Yeah, that's fair.
43.6mm is a lot. But I think that L2L is the real determinant of fit, so I wouldn't be worried as long as you can handle 49.5mm!
For a few years, it's been a Speedy Pro....
Although if diving or water sports, then a Sub
My old Submariner when in a safe country (like Japan)...
...and my plastic Timex when in the USA. Sad.
For me that would be some out of my Seiko collection.
Like this one Or this TF Or a G-shock ...

Yes there are tasks and locations where it would be inappropriate but for most of my timekeeping activities both land and sea then it’s my go too. ...
Moser Pioneer
feels a lot safer, compared to my Sub, in the US. Almost unrecognizable 😅
“Go anywhere do anything” to me means you’re willing to dig holes or work on an engine, not caring if it gets banged up or scratched.
Plus, it must be on a bracelet so there’s no worry about ruining a strap. Or, if just “go anywhere do anything” but not including expected serious abuse, then it has to be smaller and thinner so as not to get in the way, but still on a bracelet. It’s also...
For the last two years, either one of my Bathyscaphes take that role.
Easy to wear, they take a ton of strap options, and at 38mm, are super low key, but no less a pleasure to wear. Cheers, Alex ...
