Timex Chronograph rated 50 meters no sweat ever
I think if i remember correctly they were called "twistoflex" bands.
Anyway, My watch is a Seiko, M726. Rated for 200 meters, it's actually a computer (Navy tables). It does a good job recording max depth, times and surface intervals. I use it as a back up for my regular conputer. 300+ dives and still going strong.
Dirk Pitt should be so lucky!

I'm a newbie diver and a newbie to the board. Would like to offer up any info I can in return for what I'm getting. Couple of sites to offer the watch enthusiasts...

The prices at the above links can be discounted further by going through www.ebates.com first.
LP also has some good deals on watches from time to time.
Take 'em or leave 'em, but hope they help with some of you time-keepers out there.

I know.... it's a full computer, (but it looks like a watch).

The only thing 'diver' about it is the depth-rating (100 m) and the uni-directional bezel.
Cost $19...has been to 189'...still ticking. If it croaks, I'll get a G-Shock.

Timberland indiglo 50m -everyone told me I wouldn't be able to dive with it, but I do
I have 2 UW wrist watch
1. Rolex Sea-Dweller
2. IWC Aquatimer 2000m
Both perform GREAT above&under water.
IMHO .. when you buy good watch, you supposed to abuse it; not leaving it at home, in car or in the room when you go diving ... I have seen guys doing it.
Came down to resort with ROLEX, Omega..TAG but dives with other makes ... reason is not to scratch the watch because is an expensive watch.
