Currently have one of these which i will be selling but want to change to something similar, maybe a black face/band or something with a larger face. But the same chunky/rugged look. Solar power would be pretty good too. Max £200:

Any ideas? I know there are a few watch lovers on here 😀
Take a gander at the Suunto stuff 😆
Got a well used X9 i`ll be moving on soon - GPS tracking and all that ..
I have had a G-Shock AWG101 watch for approx four years

It is solar powered which works well. My main gripe is that the light is pretty poor - a sickly yellow colour that struggles to illuminate the dial but not really a big problem.
It also syncs to a radio time signal so is always accurate.
I have replaced the watch strap once which was cheap and easy.
If it broke I would buy another.
I love gshocks, but I find they can look a little samey. But then I spotted this, and will be treating myself this christmas

I have one of these, it replaced a g-shock. Originally I thought it was a bit OTT with the functions but they're very useful. If it broke today, i'd buy another tomorrow.

Got a GS-1150 on my wrist now. Great watch. Just over 200 but really nice clear dial for a G-shock and metal inserts look good too. Otherwise solar power and radio timekeeping is ace. I use it for all my MTB.
tony, now you're talking!

Just got one of these. Good for me because it has a tide table which is useful for surfing.
Nice and chunky too, looks like a transformer strapped to your arm.
Is there good place to buy such a watch?
or just the usual google shopping...
Walla24 - just google - you know you want one. I'm a sucker for gadet watches!
I contemplated a G-Shock Mudman...

I've got a G Shock Mudman and am really happy with it. Chunky enough that it'll look after itself and cheap enough that I don't have to be over protective about it.
I guess money is all relative to how much you earn but at £70 I'm a bit less worried about ruining it then I would be with a £200 watch.
I've got a nice gold watch that I wear for "best" but for a general day to day watch for work and playing out, i'm happy with the basic Mudman.
Seriously guys, if you want your watch to show your active lifestyle, don't piss about, you want one of these:
