Though it may not be the prettiest or most popular, I do think I will end up getting the Swiss Army. I'm a practical girl and it will hold up to what I dish out, without me having to worry about it.
NurseAnn, please DO post photos once you get yours. I'll be looking forward to seeing it on you and hearing your thoughts on it!
I definately will. I didn't shell out for the faster shipping so it may be a little while but you'll see them. I can't believe how similar our taste is!
If you need a good solid Mom watch, I think Swiss Army would be a good option if it has decent water resistance. 3ATM is sufficient for most people, but you don't want to have to take it off all the time....I have a co-worker who has the Burberry, but she wears it to work and I bet she removes when she is doing heavy cleaning. Most of my watches have 10ATM if they are going to get knocked around. I think of the Mini-Urban as a dressier fashion watch good for the office,etc. JMO. I own about 40 watches, so I am really into them.
ETenebris, I also really like that Swiss Army with the rectangular face. It's a bit dressier than the others. I considered it, but decided I'd rather have the higher water resistance. 100 meters versus the 30 in the one you linked. If that wasn't an issue, I'd be thinking about that one as well!
Happy942, yes, I definitely want to go with the brushed band. That pretty much rules the Burberry out, though it's so cute! My current everyday watch has a mineral crystal, shows no signs of wear and I've had it for almost two years too.
starbucksqueen, thanks for your input! The Swiss Army I like is WR to 10 ATM. Sounds like I wouldn't have to worry about it too much. But could I do dishes with it on?
Thanks everyone for your votes!!

I have my watch and love it! I disagree with popular opinion and think it is the prettiest. I definately think you should get it now! Here's a link to the new thread I made.

I'm all the more excited about getting my Swiss Army now, too! Glad to hear you like yours so much!
LOL!!! I was just reading through to the end with the Swiss Army one as my choice!! Nice and understated,but not so bland as its boring to look at. I do like the MOP version one posted in the link,but I think the black dial is a lovely classy option too!
