What is your longest tenured watch?
This Krieger was my first non Casio watch, and I love the look. A little on the small side for my taste now, but it matches a car I bought probably 10 years after I got this watch....which is about 20 years old or so. I did change the strap, only watch that I wore the strap out, but this one is about 95% the same as the original.

1975 Le Coultre diver in orange. High school graduation gift. One service, still runs last I checked. To change the date, one has to go back and forth. No quick set date.

After I landed my first job after college, I saved up enough to buy my first nice watch. A 2008 Citizen Eco drive with a chronograph and alarm. Wore it everyday to work. 13 years later, it's still running good as new. I'll never part with it.

Nice one!
I remember admiring that watch quite awhile back. Do they still make them?
