I prefer Chronograph type watches but am open to suggestions... my budget is up to about £800 ($1400)
I'm keen to see what sort of watches you guy like - inspire me 

 
lol, that's not a watch, it's a lifestyle decision

				Whatever you get, opt for titanium case and band instead of steel, much more comfortable.

				I still have a cheap Cardinal watch (about $100) I’ve had it for at least 4 years now, I went swimming with it and some water leaked in so now the date doesn’t work, but I never used it because you always have to adjust it for each month. I got a nice Swiss Army watch for my birthday but after a few days I didn’t like it, it was cutting right into my arm and it felt way to bulky, so I returned it. 
 
I think this was a model, I also got a blue swiss army knife with it.

werd a titanium watch will also weigh 1/16 the wirght of most watches it's size, plus it will never loose it's shape, even if hammered in a car door a few times

				The guy who tried to be my boss at my last job had a Tissot PR50 or something... I happened to have the next higher model.  When he asked me which watch I had, I think it shrunk his penis about an inch because the guy who worked for him had a better watch or sommat retarded...

That's what I'm wearing right now. Silver with gold accents and a plain face. Not a bad watch.

mine. automatically adjusts time to region and daylightsavings (so if i go to japan i'll get the jap time 

 ).
i can also scroll through 32 or so timezones to see how late it is in loc._x. pretty neat feature since my dad lives in thailand so i can see what time it is there before bothering him

				Watches are like cars, the only explanation for your need of an expensive one to show off to other men (and admit it, no girls except skanky golddiggers give a shit about your car or your watch anyway), is that you are gay and you have a small penis. 
function > flash

LOL, ok. Have fun driving to your next job interview on a Ford Fiesta while keeping time on your TIMEX. 
Watches, much like glasses, are huge parts of fashion. Just like one would dress up for a wedding, one should also not wear a 5 dollar watch.

				We tend to hire people based on their skills, not based on their wristwatch.
But I guess that may be different in different businesses.
