In traditional style watches I prefer thin titanium cases with titanium band along with a simple face and sapphire crystal and quartz crystal (electronic) time base. These are very light and the sapphire crystal seems less prone to scratching vs mineral glass or hardex thermoplastic.
Next step up for me would be my favorite line of watches from Citizen. The EcoDrive radio controlled watches require no batteries and are always accurate as they are sync'd to a time signal transmitted over the air out of Fort Collins Colorado (which is sync'd to an atomic clock in Boulder Colorado).
