Let me give you some real advice, buy a Casio G-SHOCK, pick a version with tiny solar panels. Seriously, they will last a very long time, no need to change a battery or synch it. Strapped my watch on like a decade ago, still works without any maintenance or anything.

That or the Casio Pro-Trek if you want something that's not the G-Shock

Didn't know that type, now I might have to get one

I've had mine for a good while now and it's out up with all maner of abuse. Plus mine has a canvas strap that I prefer over metal or silicone.
