    Sorry about your knee. Ouch! I'd take the SINN on holiday. Tough enough not to worry about and looks good (especially on a NATO).

    The bunny is adorable. Enjoy your holiday whichever watch you choose.

    Take the Orthos, and buy a nice souvenir watch at a duty-free shop?

    I also vote for the Orthos. It's playful like a vacation watch should be, but solid enough to do activities, and less worry for loss or damage.
    Too many watches, not enough wrists.

    underwatermechanic, I am sorry about your injury and I hope it doesn't hamper your vacation too much.

    As for the watch, I would think the Explorer II or the Sinn would communicate that you likely injured yourself in a rough(read "manly"), outdoor pursuit(and you did), rather than tripping over your computer chair. However, as you said, the Explorer II would cause you to fuss and worry over damage, and it can raise your chances of being a crime victim on vacation. Therefore, the Sinn is the logical choice to me.

    Computer chairs can be dangerous. They say sitting is the new smoking.

    Hope you get recover soon and totally healed man... my own knee hurt just by looking at that picture.. very sorry you have to deal with all of those in family Vacation..

    Take The Sinn.. that watch will do all the job just fine..

    and i'm such a sick minded guy that when you said you have a bunny picture to compensate, i thought it would be one of these "bunny" .. (your bunny looks cute though)

    Sorry to hear about your accident and I wish you a speedy recovery.

    About the watch, just choose one you feel comfortable wearing for a few days and that's it.

    Enjoy your holidays in Spain.
