Try the Avier Triton diver, mine keeps within a couple of seconds a day. The luminescence on the dial markers and hands is superluminova, the dial has this nice reflective metal finish. It has a date function, but no chronograph function. Mine takes a lot of abuse, but it uses ETAs 2824 movement which is very solid. Its only rated to 200 meters, but it has a really nice display back. It retails at $695, not a big price when you consider most swiss divers retail over $1000.

I also like the screwed links, I didn't have to go to anyone to get it sized, I just used my eyeglass screwdriver.

So, what I am looking for now is a:

1) stainless steel watch
2) luminescent dial and hands
3) with calendar, stopwatch etc
4) very water resistant
5) very abuse resistant (I do a lot of mechanical type works etc)
6) accurate
7) not too expensive. I want functionality and not prestige.

Any suggestions? I can go with analog or electronic display, I am not
too sure what is my preference.

thanks
