Top 5 Watches for Adventurers

We adventurers need to be well equipped. Regardless of your location, urban or remote, whether you're on an unguided foot safari in Kruger Park, or simply scouring your hometown for the best Mexican food, you need a solid watch.

A watch serves three main purposes for adventurers. First, watches are a fashion statement. For many of us, a watch is one of the few pieces, if not the only piece, of jewelry we wear. Your watch definitely says something about who you are. Secondly, a watch can be used to determine which direction is North sans compass (there is abundant information about this on the web). Finally, there is the all too obvious purpose...it tells time.
