There is only one watch to take, that's my Omega "Moon to Mars" Speedy.

The only “watch” to take to Mars is the one that will never be inaccurate, won’t rust or run down, can endure the vacuum of Space and extreme temperature swings.

Also, will never need a new mainspring, crystal, crown or tube. Will remain waterproof and airtight against Martian dust devils.

I introduce you to the Martian Shaft

Don’t have it yet but probably CHNR... I think the color scheme would go well with the Mars terrain and I tend to like to match my watch to the planet I’m visiting.

I was just talking about this watch on another thread. That would be a good one for the trip while in the ship, but it can't actually go outside of the module into space itself, if need be, so I don't know if I'd choose it.

Watches, in the traditional sense will be worthless. The 24 hour day is gone. You will have a 24.6 hour day.

So maybe a watch for timing (chrono), but it’s probably best to focus on other things.

If the world is ending, I will choose to perish with it with all my watches.

Mars is too boring for my liking.
