Everything I need from a functional watch I have in my G-Shock. It's also accurate to a silly degree, solar powered, chrono, world-time, alarm, and the face is 100% analogue (no LCD on this).

It's just one of the G-Shock MTG range:

The one I bought was circa £450 at the time, and was this one:

They have all you'd imagine from a modern chrono: solar powered, radio-sync to atomic clocks, world time, etc. And they have all you'd imagine from a G-Shock: ruggedness, reliability, durability, etc.

I had taken a small chunk out of my Sinn and I wanted an everyday watch that I could destroy (or try to) and not care so much about. I didn't want a digital LCD though... just something that looked analogue but had this incredible ruggedness.
