Wristwatches - what do you wear?

You can actually have the watch serviced at Cartier and request that they clean and polish the watch.
would be nice but I don't have a dealer where I live. On another there are suggestions on how to keep it in good condition although they suggest using a brillo pad like you would use for scrubbing kitchen utensils and i'm not going to try that.

I have an old Relic (Fossil) stainless steel diving watch that has hands-down, been the most durable and reliable watch I have owned. I think I paid around 80.00-140.00 for it 11 years ago I had it sized down to fit my wrist and I've had this in the Gulf, the Atlantic, the Pacific hurricanes and blizzards at 14k feet.

The bezel and case won't scratch, won't fuze, and it won't stop ticking.

I just bought a new watch. I got the mid-size Chopard Happy Sport in yellow gold with diamonds. I have the small version of the Chopard Happy Sport in white gold with diamonds and I have a DeLaneau First Lady in yellow gold with diamonds and a Rolex Presidential in yellow gold with diamonds and mop face.

I have a black ceramic Dior VIII that I currently wear as an everyday watch. I have gold Rolex and Bulova, as well as two Gucci with diamonds and some other watches, three Hamiltons, and my diamond white gold Rolex for dressy times.
 
I have an Omega Constellation which I adore. I feel like it is a classic that will never date. My DH bought me a Citizen chronograph with diamonds around the bezel as I wanted to try the over-sized watch look, as the MK watches looked too big on me. I did not want to spend a huge amount of money to find that the over-sized watch look was not for me. I am on the look out for a new classic watch. I have recently been looking at the Baume & Mercier range. Does anybody have any experience of this brand of watches? Is it's quality similar, better or worse than the Omega brand? I was not sure which thread to post this on. Many thanks in advance xx
 
I wear my vintage Cartier Tank on most days. It just seems to go with everything. I also own a vintage Gucci bangle style and a Citizen ECO - Drive two tone with diamonds.
