Mechanical watch for runs recommend.
Any one use a mechanical watch for running and which model ?
Don't wear my glasses while running so need legibility. Thinking about IWC Aquatimer. I think A chronograph would be hard for me to read. I may have asked this ? here before. |

The only "nice" watch I have ever considered purchasing to wear while hiking/running was the Breitling Endurance Pro. But still, that's still $3k+ for a quartz watch.
Just my personal opinion, I wouldn't buy anything too expensive for risk of damage (hence why I didn't buy the Breitling myself), So I would go with something like the Seiko 5 Sports. Has an automatic movement, super durable, and if something were to happen to it, you're only out a few hundred bucks. |

Something like a Hamilton Khaki manual wind wouldn't be the worst idea. Manual rather than automatic will deal with the forces associated with running a lot better. Grab a NATO strap and it'll work well I think.

Also I have so many items that need recharging at the end of the day...I'm kinda sick of batteries and cables. I thought the IWC Aquatimer would be cool but come to find out it's one of those pieces that prices tumble on. Probably keep on using the G-Shock. |
