The oxidation looks very cool.

I was going to suggest similar until I saw you wanted something nicer, UW.
My Ecodrive is my favorite watch I own but learned my lesson wearing it to work. Still want to get the crystal replaced now....

I have the cheaper version of the above. It's solar but not atomic. It's the watch I wear when I don't mind it banging into things.

EDIT: Just realized this is an old thread... lol

New watch to add to the EDC line up. Another cheap watch so if I beat it up I won't feel bad but personally I think it looks great. Love the looks.
Maybe I can replace it with a nice Hamilton X-Wind Auto some day.

I like rubber in the summer and not metal. In the spring/fall I like metal bands, and in the winter I prefer a canvas/suede/assolutamente strap type.

So the end result is I have a lot of watches and a lot of straps.

Get the crystal replaced with a sapphire crystal, it should hold up better. My eco-drive has held up to all kinds of banging about at work, but my son managed to wreck it when he was six-months old. Still have to get the crystal fixed.
