I always wear a chronograph.  I use the timer, stopwatch, and alarm functions every day. My Timex watches have always stood up to the rigors of every day life, and they have the best features at very reasonable prices.  This model is good looking, rugged, waterproof, with all of the afore-mentioned features plus their Indiglo lighting system, and is accurate to within 5 seconds per month.  A great watch at a great price.
