L-R, in order of least to most personal importance:

1. Battery-operated Skagen Titanium. Sometimes you just need a "grab-and go" watch.

2. Seiko Prospex Samurai (Automatic) on a NATO strap. I've had it down to 220' on a Japanese WWII wreck so far, as I actually use it as my dive watch.

3. Sinn 856 UTC (Automatic). My "work" watch-- I keep the inner time zone on GMT/UTC/Zulu time-- that comes in handy pushing a jet around. (All military and commercial aircraft base everything on GMT to avoid any confusion with time zones.)

4. Rolex Submariner on a woven Everest strap (Automatic). My wife got this for me as a combination "50th Birthday/10th Wedding Anniversary/Captain's Upgrade" present.

5. Glycine Airman (Automatic). My father bought and wore this while flying Caribou's in Viet-Nam and then continued to wear it for the rest of his aviation career, until he gifted it to me when I graduated Pilot Training. I wore it during every conflict I flew in for over 25 years (Gulf War I, Gulf War II, OIF, OEF, etc.)
