The watch industry is one that seems in the process of disruption. Between the Apple Watch and Android Wear, everyone is attempting to make the watch act like more than a watch. Yet, there is something to be said for the classics. Just as there are plenty of reasons to love pen and paper based writing in an age of laptops and tablets, there is still good reason to love a classic watch.

I've worn the Citizen Men's Eco-Drive Stainless Steel Watch for most of the past five years. It's water resistant down to 330 ft and solar powered. It's nice enough to be worn to dressier events, but rugged enough for daily use. I've never had to think about charging it in the entire time I've owned it. It gets plenty of power from just occasional time in the sun.
