I am with Pax

An Orange Monster on an SS bracelet with diver's extension that gets wrist time every weekend. You just can't kill it or the lume... under $100 bucks and worth three times that.

Good question, by the way! This thread is revealing some terrific beaters.

Ticino Pilot

~$150 on the 'bay.  Terrific case (I've read it is the same case that Debaufre uses), nice lume, and a great running Asian Unitas clone movement.  The finish on the movement is a bit rough, but I've managed to regulate it to -1 second/day.  It's been keeping that time for 3 weeks now!  A great value, IMHO!

For me, my vintage Seiko 6309 is my least expensive that gets alot of wrist time. I picked it up a couple of years back for about $100.00. I added the Watchadoo bracelet.

My least expensive which gets a lot of wrist time is my G-Shock G-2300-9V.

Something like $60 (usd) from wall-mart - 200m WR - accurate to +/- 12 sec/month - super light and comfortable - nice profile and size - a ton of useful functions - Solar powered - bombproof.

Between that and my Enzo, my other watches have been...  riding pine.
