Just because they market something as used Special Forces does not mean it is used by Special Forces. The Fist watch I think it hast to be charged from a 110 outlet no spec ops guy will use a watch that has to be charged or I would not (not too many 110 outlets in the desert). Most use Casio G shock. Now every oil, watch, ar15 acc is used by Special Forces soon Wal-Mart will be selling the flat screen HD TV used by special forces.
 
I'd be embarrassed to wear a watch that said SPECIAL FORCES or some such nonsense. Way too mall ninja for me. :D
 
Uzi protector watch

This is what I wear for a duty watch. Never a problem, keeps perfect time, it is rugged and takes a beating. I've had it for several years and it's been great. Bought mine through Quartermaster Uniforms for around $70.

I think I'm gonna start selling boxer shorts. I'm gonna call them tactical shorts and tripple the price.

I will also have a line of Sniper Shorts too.
 
Casio G-Shock Mudman

I don't know if it's "Tactical", but it's tough and has some handy features.
Time zones, stopwatch, illumination, multiple alarms, etc.

Around $70 on Amazon
 
Seiko "Orange Monster" - 'bout $200.00 when you find it on sale....

It's a diving watch, waterproof to 200m, and a huge hunkin' piece o' stainless steel. Mine's the orange/stainless one.

If you destroy this beast, you're probably dead....

Just to clarify, I bought this one as a diving watch, not a tactical watch. It's got the secondary clasp that allows you to wear it over a wetsuit, it's really a great watch.

(Typed on my "Special Forces" keyboard - hey, it's black.... with my "black ops" optical laser mouse as backup:))

Dang, that thing looks like it would stop bullets.

Who was that superhero who deflected incoming bullets with his wrists..... Dr.... somebody (it's ok, your secret is safe here).

Wore one of these bad boys for 16 months in Iraq, and it still keeps perfect time. I beat it badly though, so I only wear it for work and the range. Plus, the backlight is awesome. Just bright enough.
 
You might consider a Casio Pathfinder. It's digital rather than the analog models you seem to like, but it's rugged, has a large bold display that's easy to see in low light, and has more bells & whistles than any gadget guru could ever hope for :D.

Seriously, I've had mine for over 10 yrs. and I love it. I spend a lot of time outdoors, and little things like its digital, flux gate compass, altimeter, and barometer (to hint of incoming weather) have been a lot of help on several occasions.

The Seiko Dive Watches can also be used as a cosh.

I've had mine since the mid-80s or so. When my eyes first started going bad on me, the large dial was kinda neat.

The radium paint on the dials and hands are kinda dim.

Better stuff is available now.
