I like the Submariner, but prefer the styling on the Yachtmaster (my daily watch), it also has the divers dial. Cartier Roadster is my 'going out' watch, though no diver's dial.

My parents got me a Rolex Submariner. It is a classic design, self winding, and with the divers dial can double as a rudimentary timer.I have had that watch now for 11 years and have been very happy.

The biggest points of concern to me are that the watchbe kinetically powered and have a "sweeping" second hand. I don't likethe "tick, tick, tick" bit.I don't need a lot of features, but one thing I would like is a"countdown timer". I'm not sure that exists in a good analog watch -I'd like to be able to set the watch for x minutes and have it informme somehow when that time has elapsed. I could do without that and I'mthinking I might have to, but I figured I'd throw it out there in casesuch a beast exists.Any advice would be appreciated.-Ryan _________________________________________________________________ Get the new Windows Live Messenger! http://get.live.com/messenger/overview [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo!
