This is another good budget watch with a good movement. It is equal to the Marathon just without the Tritium dial.

This is a good movement any watchmaker can work on. In fact a new movement costs around $300.00.

I also second a good Casio G-Shock. I use them on my trips over seas to primitive areas.

I don't think the kid has a decent wrist watch, so I'm thinking about getting him something good, nice, and tough for the job. Any recommendations from any current or retired firefighters out there for what works and or things to stay away from?
I am a watch addict. I even work on them. What is your budget?

This is a tough watch that was designed for Search and Rescue. I have two of them.
