I need a decent analog watch.  Maratac still hasn't made another production run and bang for the buck for what I paid it should do the trick.

I've heard of the Eco-drive, but have no idea what it means.

No need for batteries or winding. Solar/indoor light powered.

Really.  Cool  I HATE electric (battery) watches. That's why I like my Submariner so much, self-winding.

I own a few Ecodrive watches they have all been flawless and I am more than happy with them for EDC.

I just can't bring myself to spend a whole lot on a watch. I am fairly practical.  Quality and durability trump the cool factor for me. 
 If I can find Quality, durability and cool factor that's a bonus.
 
 That was around my threshold for comfort(money wise) on a watch. I wouldn't have spent it if my wife didn't force me to buy my own birthday gifts.
