I went ahead and picked up the Timex I mentioned the other day, and I am happy as can be! It's light, comfortable, feels like a tank, and seems to be keeping pretty accurate time for the 9 hours that I've had it. It has a Miyota 8215 movement with custom, shock absorbent mounting and a screw down crown for better water resistance. It's almost the exact same size as the Casio AE-1000W I've had as my EDC, and only a little bit heavier.

I'm glad that it's been working for you for so long! I'm looking forward to building some history with this one, too.
