In the interests of injecting some more variety, and in the spirit of the "rat bike, beater, frankenbike" thread, here are some of mine:

The first (M-watch by Mondaine) is my all round quartz beater. Just keeps going through mud, water, oil, anything. I've had it 7 years and only replaced the bracelet once, the crystal twice, and the battery three times! It keeps time nearly as well as the Junghans below.

The second is my old Seiko (my first quartz, from 1982) which is now something of a frankenwatch. The crystal and retainer are not original or correct (and they look ghastly). No longer in running order, alas.

Third is my ceramic Junghans solar. It's nice to have a German watch to wear in Switzerland for the sake of variety :)

Last is my everyday Hamilton Jazzmaster.
Oh, and I suck at watch photography, but you can see that.
