    I can spot salmon a mile away, but are those scallops? I'm afraid they are, and my mouth is watering as I type this, at 9:35 am. Oh man, now I'm daydreaming about FL Keys seafood omelets.

    Oh yes. Pan seared is nice but nothing beats grilled. Sadly this pic is from a much warmer time - too cold for grilling scallops this week!

    I've been using the Sumo as my daily diver for the last little while. Sadly its the only watch with a bracelet that I currently have

    ..but on the other hand, this wjean president bracelet is really really nice. I love it, light years ahead of the stock bracelet.

    Easy - Invicta ProDiver 9937OB (with ETA 2824 motor and twin sapphire crystals). This was my daily wear all of 2006-2008 and has been in rotation ever since. It gets by far the fewest "Likes" in the WRUW threads!

    Like Jraul7, I don't have a "daily" beater as I usually change watch daily, but I do have a beater watch that I use when ever a beater is needed. It's the only watch I wear without too much care, and I enjoy it! It was honestly very hard for me to find such a watch. A few affordable in my collection were originally bought to be beaters and I simply couldn't beat them, so I just started wearing them in my rotation : )

    Not really a "beater", but I wear it 7 days a week.
