I have too many expensive swiss auto watches and I love wearing them. But dollar-for-dollar the best watches are the Eco Drive Citizen solar collection. In terms of reliability, full functions, and some very snazzy sporty styles, they are my favorites to wear on a daily basis. I have a Casio Edifice that is also exceptional.

Love me a bold, clunky watch and there are a few Alpina designs I want to own. But I do not like that dial texture even though it does match up well with the silicon strap.

I think that is a beautiful watch. The different materials and textures of finish provide a bold contrast and sporty appeal. I was seeing a lot of Rado on the grey market for 60% off retail a while back but not so much anymore and that particular chrono is worth the money IMO. I have seen many watches that have a higher price but less appeal than this one.
